I don’t think I’ve mentioned here before that I’m the list owner for UUS-L, the oldest existing Internet-based mailing list for Unitarian Universalists.  UUS-L started in early 1991 when Steve Traugott gathered a list of people interested in a UU mailing list and got it created at the University at Buffalo, part of the State University of New York, on their mailing list service.  I joined the administration team in 1994, and eventually took over sole ownership and management of the list in the late ’90s.  At its peak in early 1996, UUS-L had almost 750 subscribers.  SInce then it has tailed off until just a few dozen remain today, but it still hosts good discussion on just about any kind of topic.

Today, I moved UUS-L from its hosting service at the University at Buffalo to a server that I own and operate.   I received an email from the list service admins that all lists hosted by them must now be sponsored by a university organization or relate to the mission of the university.  UUS-L doesn’t meet either criteria so it had to move.

As of today, the new home for UUS-L is at http://www.bearcircle.net/mailman/listinfo/uus-l.  I’d like to publicly thank UB for hosting the list for so many years with excellent service.
