We currently have a Strong Supportive group. Opinions are freely given and taken period. Banter and brainstorming lead to ideas that when given the space to grow are fortuitous for all. Continue as we have and we will still be a great group! Participants in the ‘new community’ are trying to communicate at and in their comfort zone. I for one do not fault them for that but do fear they will have to reinvent years of the work those of us already know.
Ah yes When you can change the system, you have become the system. My 2 cents Have a wonderful weekend! Best Regards, Doug .

It's still on LISTSERV, which is near&dear to my heart as a long-time VMer, but whose day has largely come and gone, due to the issues Charles mentions (and more). Now, if someone wanted to migrate IBM-MAIN to (say) groups.io, that might be good; OTOH, who knows whether groups.io will persist. There's risk in moving and then losing that platform. Oh for the good old days, when LISTSERV was the only real choice, so we were happy to have it! ...phsiii ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
