 Well done, thy good and faithful servant.

 I've received notification from my hosting provider that they will cease 
to support this mailing list effective July 21, 2026.

That probably won't affect your life very much. The list is pretty quiet 
in recent years as people have moved most of their communications off of 
email and onto various social media sites. If you'd like to preserve 
some of the messages from this list, you can download them from the 
message archive at 
http://lists.alberg30.org/pipermail/public-list-alberg30.org/ and this 
will also be going away.

I really appreciate everyone who has participated in this list. I 
started it around 1998 using the ONElist service 
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ONElist) which then merged with eGroups 
and was then acquired by Yahoo! Yahoo started adding "web bugs" to track 
viewing of the messages, so I decided in June of 2000 I registered the 
domain alberg30.org and hosted it on a provider that offered 'mailman' 
mailing lists. It's been there for the last quarter century, quietly 
facilitating conversations between Alberg30 sailors and aficionados.
