Hello fellow Powderworkers,

as most of you will have noted, the Powderworks mailing-list has been
closed for the past couple of weeks. I have asked the former list owner
Cheryl to pass the list on to me so everybody can decide whether the
list should continue to exist. Currently there are 640 members on the
list. Regrettably, due to the temporal closing of the list, all past
messages, files, photos and links have been lost so I'd like to ask you
to contribute and help to rebuild these contents. For now the big
question is if this list should stay on at all considering that Midnight
OIl is no longer. I will start a poll on this soon. I am new to managing
a mailing list so please bear with me if things don't run so smooth in
the beginning. Finally, I want to thank Cheryl for hosting this list for
the past couple of years and for giving me the opportunity to take over.

Regards,

Stephan

I'm thrilled that someone wants to restart the group. I was a member of Powderworks way back in 1995 when it was on the old server and rejoined several years ago. Although I've only been a lurker since it moved to Yahoogroups, it provides much more info than the "official" web sites of  any of the various band members and is far more interesting to read. Also, for someone like me who lives in New York, it's sometimes the only way to get information on what the band members are up to. Please keep the group going. I did vote in the poll but wanted to pass along my thoughts.
