January 1997: extract of message from Dick White:
As you may know the list was started in April of 1996 by John Elmgreen with
four members.
The list was manually managed and everyone sent copies of all messages to
all other members. The
list grew to around 60 members and it became difficult to copy everyone.
John was having to send out multiple messages because Compuserve restricts
the copy list to less than 50 people. The list was automated in October
1996
by me using majordomo software. When I turned on the list there were 65
members. In less than 3 months the list has grown to 100 members. The
greatest growth period was late October and November. In December we
started
to bounce around. We started to have folks who tried us out for a while
and
then signed off. For every two who signed on one would sign off. Messages
started out at around 5 per day and right now I would guess they are
running
a little less than 10 per day. Regards, Dick White
