It appears that there is very little interest in the RIP Goldi ping list. I am going to delete it.

Re: the closing of LP...
Apologies for requesting info that is probably old news to most already here; but, the last I heard, sysadmin was planning to continue LP for the foreseeable future with the possibility of it being taken over by someone else; and, that a few potential takers-over had already offered proposals of sorts. Am wondering what happened since then that caused the decision to close completely...
Thanks for the replies. I sort of understand the reasoning from Neil's an sysadmin's standpoint with all the bickering; but, it's a shame for the archives to also be closed. There's a lot of good info there that anyone familiar with the site could retrieve. In other words, the archives could be used as a reference source, for some, at least...
Regardless, this seems to be a well organized and run forum; so, I'm sure all will work out for the best...
Just curious, I missed whatever announcement was made about voting for something. Was the voting about who would become owner?

I agree with you, packbot. Lots and lots of good debate and discussions down the rat hole. Not sure, but it seems they might still be available (at some point in time) according to the last few things sysadmin posted.
Regardless, this seems to be a well organized and run forum;
Just wait until A K A Stone gets off his meds and shows his true colors. So far, he's been on his best behavior and I like him for that.
Didn't sysadmin say something about having the elPee archives available in the future in Read-Only status?
I believe he did. What was up last was a virtual headstone. He said some time later he would do a memorial page with access to old threads. I have been told, however, my understanding was in error.
