I'd say keep it up.
I did check the lsoft site about the software.
They have a Lsoft lite Free version that supports up to 10 lists, 500
members each.
The current membership of HP3000-L appears at 371 (checking on raven).
http://www.lsoft.com/download/listservfree.asp
There are a few other lists that the archives might be nice.
HP9000-L, Openmpe, an maybe a few hidden ones :).
I would think that would be the easiest to move archives to.
But I'm sure there are other opensource solutions.
