Speaking of which... Is there any way a linguistic anthropology
(and/or anthropological linguistics) mailing-list could be hosted by
Linguist List? They already mirror linganth:
http://listserv.linguistlist.org/archives/linganth.html
If list administration becomes too much of a burden for Richard or for
the server, we could move some of our discussions to a
linguistlist.org-hosted mailing-list, which could possibly ease out
the list management process and make the list more attractive to our
colleagues in other language sciences.
The Linguist List and LingLite are excellent examples of what can be
done with academic mailing-lists. Is there really a reason for
linguistic anthropologists not to have the same type of resource?

Which is not to say that Richard isn't doing great work or that
linganth doesn't serve a purpose. I, for one, am quite grateful for
the gift of linganth. Among hundreds of mailing-lists I have been
subscribed to, it's one of the coziest.
