I'm a little bemused by the fact that there has been literally no comment on the closing of the cyberpass.net node of the list, and none before that on the disappearing without even so much as a notice by the admin of openpgp.net. Doesn't this seem at all odd to anyone else? Lance also shutdown the remailer function at anonymizer -- is he leaving the cypherpunk world altogether? Anyone know what happened to Geiger?

Lance has not posted a message to the Cypherpunks list in several years, maybe more, that I can recall. He bought the Anonymizer code from C2 and Sameer. However, he lives on by being on the Organizing Committee of the P.E.T. Workshop. Draw your own conclusions, --Tim May

Lance did post a message in the last month announcing that his cpunx node was going down. Too much bandwidth devoted to spam, he said. Other than that, I haven't seen him enter discussions in years, as you said. -Declan

I do not recall the spam attribution, but I've delved and quote it below for posterity. It was the fact that the cyberpass node lost its list of screibers, then that it would go down for days at a time, that motivated me to jump ship. Especially since there was no reply and no explanation for any of the above occurrences. I figured Lance wanted to shut that node down and move on to other things. Reese <paste>

I noticed the delivery failures...

No, the amount of communication between admins between setups and the rare problem is nil.
