[laptop-accessibility] Considering closing down the mailing list accessibility at lists.laptop.org

[Peter Korn]

Greetings list members,

Our mailing list for discussing all things related to the accessibility 
of the One Laptop Per Child project has had no substantive traffic for 
nearly a year.  Beyond a little "just a test" flurry in January 
<http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/accessibility/2013-January/thread.html>, 
the list has been silent since a 3-message thread on September 27, 2012 
about the OpenDyslexic font 
<http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/accessibility/2012-September/thread.html>, 
which took place 11 months ago (and as is clear from the list archives 
<http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/accessibility/>, activity has been 
tapering off since 2007).

Meanwhile every day brings tens of SPAM messages that collect in the 
list filter, waiting for me to periodically wade through them and clear 
them out.


Therefore I propose that we close this mailing list down. Alternatively, 
if someone else would like to take over maintenance (and SPAM filter 
clearing), I would be happy to pass the baton.


Regards,


Peter
