Re: [Nethistory] Need a change

I beilieve the low traffic in this mailing list is due to that very few 
people know its existence.
A company in China recently is doing "The OHI Project – 50 Years of the 
Internet" (http://cyberlabs.org/ohi). Could this mailing list give them 
some advices?

Thanks Jakes to wake up this mailing list. Best wishes to you!
