Hi all, just a few comments. I enjoyed the Montreal nettime online and the tech worked out fine. It is really a shame that the announcement of this (online) event came through only hours after the event ended. The reason for this is simple. Ted and Felix should be thanked for their massive work, move on and rotate, leaving others (a bigger group, I would suggest) to moderate the central nettime-l list. To correct Ted (with whom I have not been in direct contact for many years), I left the nettime-l moderation group early 2000. I wrote down my version of the nettime history till 2000 in my book Dark Fiber. I am indeed one of the founders of nettime and take credit for that work from 95-99, yes. Besides that I am, still, a regular contributor to nettime-l and nettime-nl. We do not hear much from the other language lists in this debate, but they exist and some of them do very well. Maybe not as lively discussion channels, but the problems that nettime-l has are actually shared by many lists. Regards, Geert
