My random compromise suggestion: If advertising is the good point of Yahoo, and privacy is the good point of lojban.org hosting, What about a compromise of keeping the lojban-beginners list on Yahoo for advertising and ease of subscription and administration, and host the other list on lojban.org for more experienced ( and picky ;) users? ---- Shae Matijs Erisson - http://www.webwitches.com/~shae/ shapr: I think you *are* a purist :) shapr: it's just that you're morally against unstable software, instead of morally against MS, or non-free software, or whatnot.
