You did a great job.

Thank you Yosem. I've always found your posts and moderation enlightening
and constructive. As the new New York Times' Oscars ad says "Truth is
Hard". You took it on, and helped it reach us.

I'm sad to learn of the end of the LiberationTech mail list, but will be
happy to support it's liberation from here.

Warmly,

Wendy Dent
