Re: New home for list needed.



I forget who mentioned Apug, but in my opinion, that's not a viable option. There is an alternative process forum on Apug, but Apug is strongly against discussion of digital negatives or any digital aspect of photography whatever, and set up hybridphoto, a sister site, for discussion of such matters. This results in a sort of split personality for alternative process folks, and the result hasn't been satisfactory, at least in my opinion; neither place is really a comfortable home for us.

Susan,
Yes, I think so. However there are rather strong differences in opinion, so the voting process that has been proposed on another thread is a very good idea.

Hello Tom,

I agree- malin's site would be an excellent site to have the list- it will draw more people there.

Greg,
The "institution of higher learning" that you mention does not seem to have any interest to host our list now that Gordon is not working there any more. They probably don't even know or care what it's all about. The list actually depended on the goodwill and hard work of Gordon, that's all.
I'd much prefer that alt-photo be sited on a server such as Malin's or other on this thread that have offered their servers. People that are involved in alt photo and who really care about the well-being and future of the list.
