RE: Why not?

Please lets keep the list.  I hopefully will have time to work on a couple
of projects that I want to open source and query list support.

Well, I'll speak up seeing as I proposed (and manage) this list. At the 
time I had been spending quite a bit of time on the various tools on my 
site. There were a number of others that had similar projects, and I 
asked David if he could host a list that would serve as an announce list 
for any iSeries OSS developers, and a discussion forum for all interested 
parties as well. 

Shortly after that though, my department was downsized, and I ended up 
with a lot more work to do, so something had to give. With two young 
kids, free time at home is quite scare too ;) I know some of the other 
developers had changes in their situations around the same time. I had 
hoped others would contribute to the list, even if it was just to ask 
'does anyone have code that does ....?', but the direction of the list 
may have been misinterpreted, and folks just waited to see what appeared 
in their inbox. 

I'd still like to see this list used, but I agree with David that traffic 
has been very light - his post was the first since January. There are 
currently 170 subscribers, so people must have some interest. Speak up if 
you want to keep - and use - this list.
