Allen,
Yes, everyone is getting a bit cranky because such a high percentage
of zmagnette traffic is currently about list issues and not about
Magnettes. It's a valid complaint, but it is temporary and we will
get back to our usual Magnette talk.
As for list hosts, Mark does a really great job hosting several lists
I participate in. Generally speaking, they work pretty well. I
wouldn't be too quick to jump ship at this point. Do you have
something better? When I first brought this up on Monday, Mark
immediately responded that there is a problem, it has to do with the
program that translates between IP addresses and names, and he's
looking into it. He also said that a new machine to run the
nameserver would help. Why don't we see how much it would cost to do
that? We really haven't been here very long. Give the guy a
break. Let's see how this goes for a while and what Mark comes up with.
