We know that such change is important. This subject has been discussed
in the list quite often. Actually, since 2001 we are searching for
another host/server ;-)

Among others, see the following threads in the archives:

  http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2001-07/msg00023.html
  http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2002-01/msg00261.html
  http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2003-03/msg00290.html

So, historically there has been a lot of ideas/sugestions/complains from
the community.

It was a pity that the new server had a "disk full" problem just when
we were about to start the new list. It was a small technical problem,
and it is already solved. (Yes, everyone left out can already try to
subscribe again ;-)
