TidBITS Mailing List Administrivia

Send Article to a Friend

Progress toward moving the TidBITS mailing list from Rice University is continuing, and, barring unforeseen difficulties, this should be the last issue of TidBITS sent via the Rice LISTSERV. If you've recently subscribed, unsubscribed, or altered your subscription, please bear with us for a week or two while we clean up loose ends. We're essentially maintaining two parallel versions of the TidBITS list right now, and there are bound to be some rough edges. In the meantime, if you are not on the TidBITS list and wish to subscribe, send email to <tidbits-on@tidbits.com> rather than working through the LISTSERV. Thanks for your patience! [GD]
