Tom,
   I have issues/questions with moving NAFEX to its own listserv:

   1) Would our own listserv have a Web interface for reading 
messages?  - Currently (although I still have a digest sent to my 
email) I read the messages for NAFEX on the Web almost exclusively.

   2) How would we get/transfer the archive, (which has now become a 
useful resource)?

   Personal:
     I participate in other groups on Yahoo Groups, which means I 
would have go to two different places to get all my messages (I would 
find this somewhat annoying.)

Thanks,
Chris Mauchline
