> >From now on, this newsgroup will be moderated and I will take the
> responsibility
> for it.
> For you, nothing has changed so far. If you want to send a message to this
> newsgroup, proceed as usual and send it to schisto at net.bio.net or
>schisto at daresbury.ac.uk depending on your location. The only difference is
> that
> your message arrives at my place first, and I will forward your message to
> the
> group as soon as it arrives here.
> I do not understand my new role as an editor, you still have the
> responsibility
> for the content of your messages as before. I do understand my role as a
> filter
> that holds back any kind of junk mail as you can see reading the renewed
> charter.
> In the case of my absence, Werner Kunz or Katja Kapp will take over to
> maintain
