Hi everyone, The new list seems to be up and running, and this is my first post to it. It appears all the users I currently have in my list are now subscribed, so you should be receiving this. I really do hope we can see some activity on the list and also that we can even attract some new people. To that end, I'd like to encourage everyone to spread the word about the list, both to individual and also other mailing lists you may know of where such posts would be welcome. Please remember though that some list owners really do get upset if off-topic posts are sent to their lists, so do respect their wishes on this matter. As far as I'm concerned, any subject appropriate for the previous optacon lists is fine here as well, and I also hope we can even open up some new and relevant topics of discussion. Looking forward to hearing some activity on an optacon list again!
