[liberationtech] Does anyone want to take over the Liberationtech list?

[Hapee]

Dear Yosem,

I think you should make a distinction between the finances and the 
administration, because maintaining the list is more than finances.

I think at Greenhost we can look at reduction of the cost as well and 
for the people proposing to move to Google Groups, this list is running 
on Mailman and to maintain the list you should look for keeping it in 
Mailman and also keep the archive alive otherwise you can just create a 
new list anywhere.

But Greenhost will never administer the list, I think you are looking 
for that as well, right?

Kind regards,

Hapee
