I decided to set something like this up so that it would be
centralized, to some extent, and not going out over 80 billion groups,
listservs, and such.
If it were done here, or on APOSOC-L for example, then it could be very
easy to either delete it (if you get a lot of messages in general) or
miss it (due to high volume, digest form, etc.)
Plus, a query posted on APO-L about finding space might not reach
someone in the APO Yahoo! group that needs it. I just figured it would
be easier to have one central group than have room messages spread out
over a bunch of different listservs (and possibly missing brothers who
could help out).
