~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SANDY SANDFORT . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . C'punks, You have probably just read John's post. I truly hope YOU (each and every one of you) can rise to his challenge. If you have offered nothing in the past but criticism, it's now time to get a bit more real. What will it be, your money, time, equipment? I would hope that the loudest advocates of "free speech" turn out to be the most generous, but I'm not holding my breath. Maybe the solution(s) will come from you lurkers. I hope you can put down your beer long enough to get involved. Finally, if anyone wants to discuss why the Cypherpunk list has come to this, or what I did right or wrong as a moderator, let's talk about--on the new list(s) YOU create. For now, though, it's off-topic. We have work to do. S a n d y P.S. To all those people who privately supported me in my attempt to help the list deal with its problems, thank you. I wouldn't have come back without your and John's encouragement. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes, this is a good idea. One of the proponents of the "many majordomos" project apparently has plans to impose his own ideas about intellectual property on the project, and this seems like a pretty serious thing for a setup that's allegedly going to prevent censorship. We need a place to discuss this. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 4.5 iQEVAgUBMwFm8f37pMWUJFlhAQE4uQf/RfjKd++IRYJZyLPRqsh150098IgMY4oE GITsrs9S4N/mCRzjPUYLDmDKmEkGlN3UilQsMVT7QiPA7vxpw3yvOgWEATXMRWo6 46BRFhKHbKupy6uVCbfrNiXRa76JSdWisxi9NzwJK7jmj5g8SsEJW1Z4pij5VYVJ Ck4mVziejIE/uyQ4hzenbS2ZN+EEApoF5dxVbS5rvlk/HEcUxJMUvuoxXiVm+fFQ gs59X/Yj4WtUCNb6STH89Qwdr2RdtK5yvqvP56cMNudIcdK28K/hiEXWtkCSueLu XU1aa02TQMn/oA24iGYpUF9gnjsGgieIJSx7VB96uE9UsOg6i71mIA== =ILiw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Greg Broiles | US crypto export control policy in a nutshell: gbroiles@netbox.com | http://www.io.com/~gbroiles | Export jobs, not crypto. |

I have acreated a mailing list, cypherpunks-hosts@algebra.com, for people interested in participating in the multi-homed cypherpunks list. You can subscribe to cypherpunks-hosts by talking to majordomo@algebra.com. - Igor.

The list is called cypherpunks-hosts@algebra.com. Use majordomo@algebra.com to sub-scri-be. - Igor.

I've noticed the same thing, and this is part of why I'm so skeptical of the "many majordomos" notion. Some of the proponents have their own notions of who is fit to be in their system, and which topics are appropriate. If alt.cypherpunks gets wide propagation, I expect that'll be where I post the bulk of my stuff. By the way, several people have stepped forward to offer to host "the list" (?) on their Linux boxes, or spare CPU cycles they have somewhere. It's important that such offers be weighed carefully in terms of how serious the commitment is, and how long the service might last.
