RE: vision2020 archives

[Bill London <london@wsu.edu>]

I am taking the liberty of forwarding John Teeter's post to me on to the list.
	Priscilla recently offered my suggestion of eliminating the archives (the
storage of all previous 2020 postings accessible through the website)for
consideration by all of 2020 subscribers.
	Here, John offers yet another option, the moderated archives.
	What do you think of this idea--and does anyone want to be the moderator
who chooses what is retained?
	BL
