This already been taken care of.

If people choose to disregard what has been done for them, and simply 
keep discussing, and not doing anything about it, then that is their choice.

I will not again mention on this list, that a mailing list has been set 
up, by someone willing to administer it, to which, so far, only about 
thirty people have subscribed.

It is clear that the vast majority simply do not want a mailing list.

And, with that, I will not mention it again on this list.

The new list that was set up, has been, now, mentioned enough, by me, on 
this list.
