SEELANGS Administrivia - IMPORTANT - This list is MOVING

Dear SEELANGers,

I might bore you with the details at some point in the future, but
here's the bottom line:  this list is moving, effective immediately,
from the LISTSERV server at the City University of New York (CUNY) to
the LISTSERV server at the University of Alabama (UA).

This message from me is the last one to be distributed to you using
the CUNY LISTSERV.  Please update your e-mail Address Books to reflect
the new addresses:

To post to the list:   SEELANGS at BAMA.UA.EDU

To contact the list owners:  SEELANGS-Request at BAMA.UA.EDU

To send a command:  LISTSERV at BAMA.UA.EDU

The list will be frozen for a few hours while we make the move.

I am in the process of updating the SEELANGS Welcome message.  It
should be ready within the next 24 hours.  You will be able to grab a
copy of the new Welcome message, when it's ready, by sending the
command:

GET WELCOME SEELANGS

in the body of e-mail to:  LISTSERV at BAMA.UA.EDU

You will also be able to view it on-line using the SEELANGS Web site.
(The URL for that will not be changing.)

In addition, the LISTSERV software on which SEELANGS runs will be
upgraded from version 14.5 to version 15.0 on Tuesday, March 20, 2007.
 At that time the Web Interface should appear more user friendly.

PLEASE NOTE:  Everyone currently subscribed to SEELANGS at CUNY will
be subscribed to SEELANGS at UA.  However, we are not able to move
your subscription options.  Therefore, if you normally receive the
list in DIGEST or INDEX format, and want to continue that, you will
have to reconfigure your subscription options.  Instructions for doing
that will be in the new Welcome message.

Do not worry about the list's archives.  Those are coming with us,
too, and you will still be able to search them.

The hugest of thanks go to Darren Evans-Young, the LISTSERV
Administrator at UA, and also to longtime SEELANGS list member Andrew
Drozd, an associate professor at UA, for making this move possible.

If you have questions, and I suspect you might, please hold off for a
couple of days while the dust settles.  Send any questions directly to
the new list owners' address.  If there are many questions, we might
just reply on the list to everyone at once, especially if there are
some that get frequently asked.

Thanks.

- Alex, list owner of SEELANGS
