This has been the core of my political projects since I set up the #DIYWeb mailing list in the late 90s. Sadly, I made the naive mistake of hosting it on #EGroups.com, a startup that was acquired and merged into #YahooGropes. Because I no longer seem to have admin access, and because Yahoo's new owners allowed the groups to be archived before they deleted them all, I lost a few years of my activist records :) Yet another reason not to trust #datafarms and DIY ourselves, with community-hosting.
