Hi all,

	Sorry for not being as communicative as would be preferred.  I'm
getting caught up slowly but surly[*].  Here's the scoop...

	I'm going to move the list this weekend.  There are a number of ways to
do it and I've picked the one that will ensure continuity over
convenience.  What this means is that I will shutdown the list
completely, move it over to the new location then bring it back up.  I
know this is not the most unobtrusive way to handle it.  I'm sure I
could get it done with less hassle for you but I don't have the, well,
non-technical issues are still bogging me down.  I figure that it would
be better if the list were offline for a few days (at most) than have
messages disappearing and archives lost.  For those that disagree,
please feel free to flame me off-list.  So, this is the plan -

1) Turn off the list at 08:00am EDT Saturday morning (that is about 11
hours from the time of this post)

2) Move the archives and configs over to the new site

3) Make the DNS changes to point to the new site

4) Re-enable the list when DNS change has propagated

	Theoretically this should take maybe a day so the list "should" be back
live on Sunday.  But it might not be until Monday when everything
finally settles.  During the transfer my webtrek address will also be
caught in this so if anyone really needs me please use
joe.klemmer at gmail.com to reach me.

	Everyone cross your fingers and forgive me for making this move harder
on you than it probably needs to be.

Joe
