I have one suggestion, though.  Maybe it's time to start seriously
considering making the FFML into a newsgroup, even with all of the new

getting too big for *anyone* to keep track of. 

That defeats the entire purpose of the list.

It was a suggestion only.  What _should_ we do?  What should we do, considering 
that the FANFIC volume itself may soon grow too large for anyone to handle coming 
into their mailbox on a regular basis?

Well, why not have *two* FFML mailing lists?  Divvy 
up the messages: one ML solely for fanfics and one 
for messages/C&C/MST/ideas/spamfics, or some other 
way of separating the message types.  For those who 
only want to read fics, it would reduce the size 
needed, plus reduce the weeding out of the stuff you 
want from what you don't.  (There are times when I'd 
like to stop getting messages altogether, and just 
get fanfics; I'm sure a few people would echo that 
sentiment.)  Anybody got a different/better way to 
handle it?
