I'm willing to host the list, and even a nice WWW/email-based archive
search/browse facility.  The only hitch is that I would greatly prefer
to do it as a digest only since it cuts down on my bandwidth usage (and
everyone's, for that matter).  My guess is that, given the relatively
low volume of this list, and the non-time-critical nature of it's
messages, this won't be a problem.  Assuming that I buy into a higher
bandwidth solution in the future, I won't have a problem with offering a
regular "bounce mode" at that time.

FYI, I currently host three other lists using a customized
SmartList/ProcMail setup:
