<div>I hate the idea of losing this dialogue altogether. It does seem like one email thread would be adequate. As a 2G member, my interest is actually more on the OE side than ICA, so while it's just semantics, I'd vote for a name that includes
OE. Maybe OE/ICA Dialogue? I'm certainly not going to stomp off in huff if you choose to just use ICA. 😄

<div>Dreamhost, the host of the dialogue, oe, and earthrise mailing lists, just informed me that they are ending support for discussion lists on July 21, 2026. This means that unless we act, these three mailing lists will end on that date.</div>

</div>
<div>I want to discuss some options, and I would very much like folks here to weigh in.</div>

</div>
<div>1. First option is to do nothing, which means that these mailing lists will cease to exist on July 21.
<span><span>Terry Bergdal</span></span> has opted to do this for his Earthrise list. I am open to ending OE and Dialogue as well.</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>2. The second option is to find another host for one or both lists. If we do this, I suggest one list because the distinction between the two lists (originally OE and ICA) has become very unclear. I think one list will suffice, the only question is what
to call it. Maybe dialogue, oe-dialogue, or oe-ica?</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>The OE and Dialogue lists are not very active, but I see at least on reason to continue: to provide a way to communicate life transitions to the larger community.</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>Sooner or later these lists would end anyway (I am turning 80 soon), but I had assumed they would continue for a few more years. I would appreciate input on whether one list should continue past July 21st (and what to call it), or if this is a good time
to end both the lists.</div>
