<div dir="ltr">I'd be in favor of keeping the list then, to keep the archives. I'm in favor of keeping all list archives. There was no doubt an awful lot of emails, but we're mostly talking about text that shouldn't use that much memory. I'd imagine other occupy groups may be going through similar processes (or have or will), and that dumping all the archives from all the different groups into one place would be useful for research purposes. But this is all coming from the guy not working on this, so I commend you all for doing what you can.<br>

Unless others on the list have any objections, I think we can delete it.<br>

One thing I should mention explicitly: deleting the list will also<br>
delete any message archives. So you probably want to weigh that in to<br>
the decision. (There are arguments for keeping, and arguments for<br>
deleting message archives, but I don't want to make that decision on<br>
anyone's behalf).<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

Hello Research List,<br>
<br>
We (OBIT) are in the process of doing some house keeping on our<br>
mailing lists. Specifically, we're trying to figure out which<br>
lists are still being used, and which can be retired (aka<br>
deleted).<br>
<br>
Are people still using this list? If yes, then just say so, and<br>
we'll leave it as-is.<br>
<br>
On the other hand, if this list is no longer used, then please<br>
let us know so that we can retire it.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
Steve<br>
