[Dialogue] [Oe List ...] End of hosting of mailing lists, input requested

[Wanda Holcombe]

I agree with the lists being combined into one...and appreciate all those
who have kept each of the lists functioning and have offered to keep it
going.

It would be helpful if there was a "Master List" kept at the Archives if
Karen is willing for this to happen.....and maybe this is already happening.

Thanks to ALL🌎🌏🌍
