OK folks,

Here are the results of the polls. In total 55 people voted ( Out of  
how many members , only Mike knows...?). If I had to guess I'd say we  
are about 300-400 odd folks here.

a) The results prove (as I had hoped they would, despite comments from  
some) that the vast majority want to stay put, but only just over half  
were happy with the admin commands etc. No brainer I  spose, but now  
we know.

b) So the ongoing debate that one might like to have, is  if Mike  
cannot get admin stuff fixed by Dee Dee (globalgarden admin), and if  
HE CHOOSES to move house, it is clear that they would like to (i)have  
own domain and (ii)to use another listserv eg majordomo, mailman  etc

So there you go. In a nutshell, if we can get the admin side sorted,  
nearly all of us will be happy campers. A good and useful result, and  
indicative of any straw poll. See results below.

That is all I have to say about that. Have a nice day folks!
Cheers
