Subject: M-TH: Spoons' marxism space website


Hey Jon,

	What's going on?  I send unanswered
e-mails to Spoons requesting that until you
are able to completely update the website
describing the new marxism space, a simple
phrase be added indicating an expected 
completion date so any potential new subscribers 
surfing the net might know when to come back and
check it out, and instead, it's recently been 
changed from "The marxism list is closing down"
to this:

"The marxism list is now closed 
   [centered & in enlarged and bolded typeface]


This list is now closed, replaced by a proliferation of 
new lists, under the general rubric of the spoon marxism
space. However, you will be able to access all the resources, 
papers and so on that were available for and from the marxism 
list. 

We appreciate your cooperation during this time of transition. 

Thanks and take care 

Jon
for the spoon collective"

I want to be cooperative Jon :-), but it seems such a shame
to have this space that Spoons has provided inaccessible
to any possible newcomers.  The change you made seems
to me to have the exact opposite effect of what I hoped for.
Isn't it possible to just add a short phrase indicating when the 
surfers should look back to see the information about the 
proliferation of new lists?  I have no idea of the complexity 
involved in changing website or archives - if I did, I'd certainly 
volunteer to help. A single sentence including a date, however, 
seems like a reasonable request.  Let me know if I'm wrong.

		Ang

I've been the person doing this, and I'll get to it this week, but have 
been snowed under.

However, thanks for your reminders.

Take care

Jon
