Hi All, As of today, I will no longer be administrator of SeeSat-L, SeeSat-D and UseSat-L, nor of the VSOHP web-pages. Managing these lists and web-pages since late 1994 has been a very rewarding and interesting experience, but now the time has come for me to move on to other things. As most of the SeeSat-L old-timers know, I used to be much more active in the satellite observing hobby, through my activities with flash periods (PPAS) and the Belgian Working Group Satellites. With time, changes in my professional and personal life gradually led me away from satellite observing as an active hobby. The recent switch of providers provided a good opportunity to transfer ownership of the VSOHP and mailing lists to a new administrator/owner: Ted Molczan (molczan@rogers.com). From now on, Ted Molczan will be responsible for maintaining SeeSat-L and associated mailing lists (and officially host the VSOHP web-pages). I expect Ted will bring you up-to-date on list management policies. Let me say special list-related thanks to Walter Nissen, for instigating and naming the list in November 1994; Neil Clifford, for co-managing the web-pages and helping out with admin tasks in the 90s; Jeff Hunt, for doing an excellent and often thankless job of updating and creating new pages these past 5 years; Mike McCants for encouragement and help with the list; Ted Molczan for taking over the list; and all at the BWGS without whom none of this would have been possible. On a final note, I would like to thank all of you who have made the list such a worthwhile forum these past 8 years. I hope it may remain the friendly, high signal-to-noise and efficient virtual meeting place for satellite observers. Cheers, Bart, soon-to-be-lurker. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bart De Pontieu -- bdp@lmsal.com -- http://blackadder.lmsal.com/~bdp/ (650) 424-3094 -- Lockheed Martin Solar & Astrophysics Lab, Palo Alto bart@satellite.eu.org -- 3251 Hanover St., O/L9-41, Bldg. 252, CA 94304 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
