News from AUTOCAT
AUTOCAT is about to have a have a new home: Syracuse University (in Syracuse, NY). Syracuse has long experience in running LISTSERV lists and I know that they will be doing everything possible to make the transfer as easy and transparent as possible. The subscription list will be transferred from Buffalo to Syracuse so you will NOT have to resubscribe.
If your feelings about how this list was run prevented you from subscribing in the past, give this another chance. There are new list managers.
