I've gotten the list for years--it's time! It has been very much
appreciated (except for the times that I get mad...!) I'm much older
(pushing 80) but I want to extend "Thanks!" to Wayne for all the years
of work, of responsibility, of time--

Hi Wayne,
Congratulations on your retirement. Speaking from experience, it's
a great way to finally do some things that you have never had time
for (like play your lute in the morning when your fingers are still
fresh instead of rushing off to work).
I've been on the list since very near its inception (IIRC, you wrote
me an email and invited me to join based on my Usenet postings), and
it's been a tremendous resource. I very much appreciate all the time
and effort you have put into keeping it running smoothly, not a
trivial task. I hope someone can keep it going in some form. Email
lists may be old school now, but they work (and I avoid FB as a
matter of principle).

Subject: [LUTE] The lute list is retiring soon
Hi -
I have been running this lute mail list since 1998, and it has
been interesting and fun. Now I am retiring from my job at
Dartmouth College, and when I retire the computers that I have run
will be shut down. This includes the mail servers that run the
lute mail list. So it is time to retire from running the lute mail
list too. I will also be closing my lute web page, my lute
tablature page, and "Lutes For Sale" web page.
If someone wants to take up running the lute mail list I suggest
that they announce it on my list in the next month, while my list is
still running. My list runs using software that I wrote, and I
don't recommend that someone else try to use it. I don't know the
last day yet, but I will make an announcement when my list actually
closes.
Wayne
