   Hello Michiel!   
      
   ** On Monday 17.01.22 - 15:33, you wrote to me:   
      
    M> If Janis did indeed choose Sean as her intended successor   
    M> and gave him the password, why did she not inform her   
    M> readers when she announced her departure?   
      
   Methinks that you would need to ask Janis. Google revealed her     
   @gmail address quite readily at a Synchronet-based BBS.   
      
   In the last few weeks she announced frustrations in getting a     
   replacement pc operating. Meanwhile, maybe a completely     
   different matter (ie. family|health) arose and became a     
   priority. Give her a break.   
      
      
    M> There is no need for complexity. It would not be the first   
    M> time that there was intervention from the e-list keeper to   
    M> recover a "stranded" listing...   
      
   Now it sounds like you would need to ask the elist-keeper.  ;)   
      
   There is no point expounding on maybees and whatifs. You know     
   how to contact people directly if you want.   
      
      
    M> I would not call it foul play if the e-list keeper had marked the   
    M> listing as "available" when Janis left.   
      
   Perhaps ask the elist-keeper what he knows.   
      
      
    M> Unfortunately the sad reality is that foul play has been a   
    M> significant factor on many occasions in Fidonet.   
      
   No point in dwelling and rehashing the past either.  Onward and     
   upward.
