[jbovlaste] A meta-level comment on the list

[Ben Goertzel <ben@goertzel.org>]

Two points:

1)
I'm grateful to Robin for operating this list and for all his work on
Lojban.  All these indignant emails about getting removed from the
list are getting on my nerves.  Relax, people, please!  Robin has his
own life apart from this list and I'm sure he has his reasons for not
being optimally responsive right now.

2)
Perhaps consideration should be given to moving the list to Google
Groups or some similar infrastructure, which is free and has automated
infrastructure for people to add/remove themselves.  This would
eliminate the sort of hassle we're seeing now.

3)
If you guys are using email clients that don't support defining
filters piping emails from specific addresses directly to specific
folders, perhaps you should upgrade your email clients ;-)

Thanks
Ben Goertzel
