I wish to remain subscribed to the list.

I agree.  Thanks for a great listserv.

I have been managing listservs for over twenty years and have been
through many moves from one server to another.  What has happened here
is not out of control and is very typical for librarians.  Considering
the thousands of people on this list, there are very few mistakes and
problems.  The keyword here is patience and tolerance for minor problems
or misunderstandings.  Roy is doing a great job as owner of the list.

Roy,
I feel like this listserv is a bit out of hand at the moment. I used to
get a useful weekly digest with posts and questions (I'm currently
signed up for the digest now) and now it is a flurry of people not
knowing how to unsubscribe and general "reply-alls" from people who may
not actually be aware of how to use a listserv properly.
Is there some kind of ground-rules email that could be sent out again to
remind people? I'm not trying to be a listserv hall monitor but I'm
surprised about the amount of emails I'm getting that are basically
people's conversations back and forth. Is there an IRC channel that
people on the listserv who want to talk to each other conversationally
can be directed to? Just a thought.
Thanks and I know this is a transition period. Just offering a few
notes!
Best,
