I certainly hope we keep The Aerie.  I hate fb and won't use it unless forced.   As far as new Aerie members - Ursula, did you join recently?

And (I have to say this) - just because something is outdated doesn't mean we have to get rid of it, right?  We are an Historical Society, after all.  ;o)

You may need to correct me as I may be completely wrong and I apologize if
I am mistaken, but I am under the impression that this is not an official
Kingdom list, but an unofficial discussion list. I am also under the
impression that the maintainer of this is no longer maintaining it, and new
members cannot be added.

If that knowledge is correct, it would be my respectful suggestion that
converse happen, and this list should probably be retired; however, as the
Kingdom Webminister is not in control of it, and as far as I am aware,
neither is the social media officer it should at least be considered an
unofficial private discussion location. As it is private and unofficial, my
suggestions are merely that, suggestions and it can exist however it wants
and give what information it desires, just as long as it is not working in
an official capacity representing the Kingdom of Artemisia.

I could create an official mailing list maintained by the appropriate
Kingdom officers and stored on Kingdom servers, but I do not think it is a
wise idea. With all of the social media on the Internet already controlled
by official representatives (ex. Facebook, Twitter, etc.), a mailing list
like this is pretty antiquated technology for communication, and would be
difficult to maintain as it's possible that the officer may have to approve
each email for inappropriate content or copyright violations. Unofficial is
much better in my opinion for censorship reasons and the problems that
could create.

Yours in Service,

Fritz
