Any information would be appreciated. I'm sure that moderating a group is a fair amount of work. I suspect the person who inherited this group makes as much time as possible. Still, this was a useful forum for exchanging handy information and to have it become a trickle is a waste. What do the net lawyers say about this? Should we call for another volunteer to take it over assuming the current admin (who has remained silent in this group) will accept that? Can we make it unmoderated (and suffer the decreased S/N)? I am not, btw, volunteering to moderate (can you say conflict of interest?). But we do have Suns here and they do need the usual herding, calving, branding &c. and the help is missed. -- Gary Bridgewater, Data General Corp., Sunnyvale Ca. gary@sv4.ceo.sv.dg.com or {amdahl,aeras,amdcad,mas1,matra3}!dgcad.SV.DG.COM!gary No good deed goes unpunished.
