Re: [Palindrome] Wrap-up Follow-up

[Deborah Levinson <debby_levinson yahoo com>]

I can set up a mailing list and wiki this week once my domain name
transfer is complete, which should be in a day or two. 

One metaphysical issue with the mailing list: if we're splitting up
into constructors and solvers, and the solvers are getting custody of
the palindrome list, who do we (the construction team) become? Are we
still Palindrome? If so, why wouldn't we keep the mailing list?

I feel that I have only a rudimentary smattering 
of information, and most of it's wasted on words 
like "rudimentary" and "smattering."
