Still here, still interested.
Last time the list evaporated (from it's original place hosted on a USA
uni's majordomo mail list) it was days before the final tour and there
was a desperate rush to throw the list back together in this form, so
that we could all feed news and meeting info around.  Cheryl accumulated
the list of email addresses by picking though her mail bag while I set
up this mail list.  Not long after I rolled list ownership over to her
as she was better placed to take it on and make a go of it.
I still consider it the most likely place that I'll find out anything
about anything that might happen in Oil land.  Doesn't matter that there
are long spaces between events now.
Lurking,
Ribman

Hello fellow Powderworkers,

as most of you will have noted, the Powderworks mailing-list has been
closed for the past couple of weeks. I have asked the former list owner
Cheryl to pass the list on to me so everybody can decide whether the
list should continue to exist. Currently there are 640 members on the
list. Regrettably, due to the temporal closing of the list, all past
messages, files, photos and links have been lost so I'd like to ask you
to contribute and help to rebuild these contents. For now the big
question is if this list should stay on at all considering that Midnight
OIl is no longer. I will start a poll on this soon. I am new to managing
a mailing list so please bear with me if things don't run so smooth in
the beginning. Finally, I want to thank Cheryl for hosting this list for
the past couple of years and for giving me the opportunity to take over.

Regards,

Stephan
