Dan -- I don't think bandwidth is the issue.
Although my primary interface to the list is via a mail client, I do value the ability to have browser based access when I am traveling, and Googlegroups gives both types of access. Increasingly, I think the ability to search posts for relevant material is important, and I don't think any server we could maintain would even begin to approach Google's indexing capability. Besides, with a service like Google groups, we don't have to be concerned about backups, continuity of business, etc. Regards -- Bhaskar Dan wrote: > Well, my opinion is that the whole process should be controlled by > HardHats.
