Today marks the first anniversary of the Traveller Mailing List. One
year ago today I posted a message to rec.games.frp asking if people
would be interested in a mailing list to discuss Traveller, and here we
are!
Statistics: There are 131 Travellers on the list, and there are 15
future Travellers pending address confirmation.
Number of known non-USA members: Canada - 5, Sweden - 7, UK - 2, Denmark - 1.

I've tried to cut down the amount of administrator-originated mail in
the last three months, and appear to have succeeded. If you can think
of any way to make this list more useful, I'd like to hear your
suggestions (even if they are "be more prompt, James!").
Thanks everybody for being a part of this list!
James
