Can you say who they are? I can tell you this, the Guild does its internal

is privy to the Guild, not because we think mailing lists are "better" than
newsgroups.
I am surprised that there's a group that did that because they didn't like
lugnet per se... there are lots of quiet backwaters or a new area could easily
be created, I should think.
