I am regretfully resigning from this list, after a very short but pleasant stay.  I cannot keep up with the mail.  I ahve searched for a means of receiving the list in digest form to no avail.  I anyone can point me to a means of doing so, please feel free to write and tell me, I will be grateful, as I truly wish to take part inthis project.  I simply cannot spend an hour or more a day reading e-mail messages.I am receiving a redhat list in digest and particpating in the boards at BlueLinux.org.  I find the asynchornous format to be much more convenient.  I can choose which discussions I would like to follow and can reply at my convenience.
Perhaps there should be a message board at SchoolForge?

Thanks,
Tony Baldwin
