Re: *** ADMIN: Problems With Mailing List

[Jon Paris <jon.paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scott and I have already had discussions re System i Developer hosting this forum.  The only thing currently holding it up is me having enough spare time to create the new "home". I hope to be able to get that done later this week.

It would be helpful to know if there are list members who are experienced in administering PHPBB which is the software we will be using.
