Mark Bradakis is the current "keeper of the flickering Flame", as he runs the
server that the Team.Net mail lists and web server reside on. But, I believe he
is not on this list. The basic rules have been determined by SOL'ers over the
years, and the list content itself is also a combined effort.

Anyone is welcome to participate, or encourage friends and other British-Car
resources to do so. But much of what you describe has little to do with the
lists, and more to do with how the company's operate. As recently mentioned,
these lists are not the place for commercial activity, that is best dealt with
in private e-mail, or a company's own list or server.

We are seeing more and more vendors on the net. Some have found it hard to deal
with, while others find it a great resource.

That, we already have. For more details, refer to the introduction you received
when you joined the list, and:

or ftp to ftp.team.net and get /misc/company.use
