*) Closed the developer forum, which wasn't used anyway. *) Added comments to the other two forums which should lead people to the mailing lists instead. *) Added the mailing list address to the "always mail to" box for the two forums, so I _think_ any postings to the forums will now go to the mailing lists. Then again, this probably requires a mailing lists subscription and I don't have the authority to manually add whatever address it would get sent from, so perhaps the messages won't arrive. -- Curt, WE7U.
