Could Not have said it better myself.

I think that a group of Volunteers with the computer knowledge should get
together and discuss this matter.  Their decision will then be reported back
to the list and we can all then vote on the preferred option.

I do not have the computer knowledge to join the discussion group but I am
prepared to leave it to those who know.

So you guys lets get it organised and thrash it out.

I would offer a suggestion though.   No offence David,  but it may be better
for the List Administrators of both Lists to sit it our and have someone
else head the group.  That way you can present your case unhinded.
