Seconded!!!
The fact that the List Digest arrives regularly makes it much more likely that I shall read it with my daily mail. The forum requires effort to remember to log into; and while it is divided into subsets to make finding topics easier, it is very likely that I will not find time to visit as regularly.
Can not the current list run in parallel if enough subscribers request it?
Best wishes,
Paul

I'm sorry but all this whinning about the change is pure laziness... and if this gets killed, so will my subscription to this list.

I'm not sure you can call it laziness. They have switched
email systems here to a web-based system. People are
spending about an extra 30-40 minutes a day using it.
That takes away productivity from what should be priority (your job). So this will add more to the time away from projects,etc. Existing list preferred in my case too.
