[governance] the internet news hosting server died

[Laina Raveendran Greene]

Thanks David for your regular and useful postings on APPLe which you
co-chair. 

FYI, it is run out of APNIC and has a good way to archive previous mails. As
far as I recall, it also has many key players especially in the Asia region,
governmnents, private sector and NGOs on the list (as far back as from 1996
when the list was first created). This therefore is also a good way to reach
out to peoples. APPLe, however, has a very strict rule of using Netiquette
on it, and no unnecessary spams keeping it in a way that few have
unsubcribed over the years and many values your postings. I do hope that
others that intend to join and post will do the same as you have over these
years.

Subject: [governance] the internet news hosting server died

Hi all

Some of you subscribed to the mailing list I had set up, and you would have
noticed that nothing has come through of late.

The reason is the server and backup that were hosting the list crashed and
I've only just found out nothing is recoverable. :(

There are 3 options for the future of the list and making the news,
information and research I compile on domain names, governance, WSIS,
censorship, legal, security and more. These are:
 1. my contacts rebuild their server and then setup a new mailing list which
they "hope" to do

 2. people subscribe to the APPLe (Asia Pacific Policy and Legal forum)
list, where I also post the news and on which I seem to be the only poster.

In the year-to-date it appears there have only been 6 other postings to this
list so there is a low amount of traffic. To subscribe to APPLe go to
http://mailman.apnic.net/mailman/listinfo/apple where you can also view the
archive and recent "news" I have compiled if you want to catch up on what
has been missed.

 3. if someone has the facility to host a mailing list that I set up a list
on their server.

For those who subscribed to the news, and who are no doubt lost without the
news, sorry about that!

And any feedback is more than welcome.

Cheers
David
