Re: OCLUG mailing list changes

I'm glad the original list will remain.

I am drawn back to all the bitter debate we had a decade ago over the
future of the lists, and OCLUG.

As I recall I objected to the corporate interest in OCLUG at the time.
I have the same objection today.

These days, I'm looking to at greater fish.

At least we're still here.
