[NTLK] Participants required "community" research survey

[Gary Moody]

Hi Ed,

Actually, I think Frank was also on that list.  

The list was formed to help with the orderly transition of NTLK from Victor ("chuma", former list Dad) to Grant, and to step in with failover notifications and alternative mailing lists during NTLK outages/service interruptions which happened with some regularity at the time.

Regards,

Gary Moody

Years ago, a sub-list of members was created called NTLK-Elders. These 13 members were the oldest members at the time. I don't know most of their real names, but I do have their emails,
Bill Guns
chuma
cstephens
gmoody
grant
Ed Kummel
Laurent Daudelin
Rich Lindsay
Mark Rollins
mmailand
Paul Guyot
Robert Benschop
T Tempel
What I find truly amazing is that a remarkable number of these people still show up from time to time on this list/community.

I laughed too.  I'm one of the newbs here, and even I'm in my 7th year.
What would she make of the old timers?


Out of curiosity, when did NewtonTalk start and who were the first
generation?  Is there a history of the list -- sorry, "the community" --
somewhere on the intertubes?



Shalom,
