Emergency backup GZG list is now in place

Dear list members,

Matthew L. Seidl has just provided me with a list of gzg-l members, so I
have put the emergency backup GZG list into place. To post, send email

Thanks! Last I saw was Monday morning.

I take it something more than a normal periodic lull happened?

I echo the thanks, but rather than making this a 'me too', would Roger please
pass on what's up? Should we now be using the FIREDRAKE? Is Berkeley in ruins?

Gawd, I must have an 'enquiring' mind... *shudder*

Any news / info on problems with the normal list?

So is the list down?

Forgive my ignorance... I have been overwhelmed by e-mails recently so I

I'm still in the process of debugging things and getting in touch with the

Much thanks, Roger, and to you too, Matthew. I try not to do that only when
things go wrong, but it's then we're reminded how long things have gone
right. /cheerleader mode off/

Both: Please make a big noise when it switches back. Almost all of my posts
are simple replies, and I'm liable not to notice I keep sending things back to
firedrake.

Weirdly, I also hadn't noticed a lack of the mail, but for me, it was weird
network problems here and RL issues, including running me mum unexpectedly to
the Dr.'s. (not to worry)

Not for lack of enjoying the posts, no fear.

THanks for dealing with this Matt. And thanks Roger for
the emergency list (esp for those who have missed their "fix" ;-)
