Let me just state what may be obvious.
If one wants a good administration level Windows email list, one can
just go to Google or Yahoo! or some other no cost group/email hosting
service and create one. And then promote it among like minded people.
PLUG should not do a Windows list, IMO. But there is very little
barrier to anyone who wants to start one.
