Mailing lists

Good plan.

The blog was useful (as you say) for searchability and to act as a
store. I too used it mainly as a redirection for emails, and rarely
consulted it.
I agree that the conversations on Crosswire would be much more useful
because it involves the whole community.
I suggest we leave the blog as an historic record in case we need to
go back and retrieve stuff.
I'm not signed up for the lists. I'll do that on Monday (I don't have
my logins here)

Thanks for thinking this through
