Fwd: Retiring the ListServ

It looks like we're moving to Google Groups (unless the offer(s) to
move the lists work out), but for those of you would like to continue
with a normal email list albeit with more traffic, including VB.NET,
C# and .NET general topics and the odd "flame war and such childish
things" but mostly limited to Australian Fridays, I'm unofficially
inviting you to join the .NET Australia mailing list:

To subscribe, send an empty message to [email protected]=
.

It is mirrored in this Google group (mostly for archival purposes):

http://groups.google.com/group/ausdotnetlist

To reiterate, this is NOT a replacement to these advanced low volume
lists, but there are MVPs on the Australian list so you do get useful
responses to advanced queries.

Regards,
Mark Hurd, B.Sc.(Ma.)(Hons.)

(Resent: I sent this to all three lists at once and it seems to have
been dropped.)
