I am going to subscribe, of course, but I think a separate list is a bad idea. For one thing, the archives will not be easily findable by the public. If there were a way for our posts to get into the archives it would be better. For another thing, many listees with syncros on the main list will miss all the really great posts.

I am against this move, but delighted to have a new syncro list. I am going to sign up right away. It is almost unfair to not forward our posts to the main Vanagon list, however so I don't know what I think.
