    VC> Hello All!   
    VC>    
    VC> Right well no one has expressed an interest in taking over the Elist   
    VC> service along with the Pi it is running on.   
      
   Hi Vincent,   
      
   Both Deon and Rob would be good resources to avail yourself of.    
      
   I am also interested in helping out in whatever way you/the guys deem helpful.   
      
   From my POV I think if there is more redundancy built into things (i.e. not   
   just one place to submit to / more than one person is across the service   
   and/or is able to offer it) the better.   
      
    VC> To remind every one I will be 76 as of June 23 and my health could be   
    VC> better.   
      
   I hope you're health is as good as it can be for many years to come good sir.   
      
    VC> Historically, for the previous two Elist maintainers etc, on their death   
    VC> the service died as well as their next of kin had no usage of the   
    VC> service or any other within fido land etc so could not be contacted any   
    VC> way.   
      
   Yep, good you are thinking ahead.   
      
    VC> IF any one might be interested in taking this service over, hopefully   
    VC> younger than myself please get in touch. You can use the Pi as a   
    VC> complete system or  run   
    VC> it side by side of you existing bbs system if you run Linux as it uses   
    VC> mbse as the bbs system and the elist software is designed to use the bbs   
    VC> mailer and other services to run which make it fairly automated - any   
    VC> bugs allowed for.   
      
   I do have a spare Pi but Deon and/or Rob may well have kit (real or virtual)   
   that could be pressed into service also.   
      
    VC> No, I am not intending to get very unwell or to die any time soon, but I   
    VC> have to start allowing for such.   
      
   It's good you are thinking ahead, and thank you for doing so.   
      
   Best, Paul
