Seems to be strong agreement on list that whatever options we go for, some people should own the nettime.org domain and this should serve as our main pointer to our digital spaces, including the list.

Should nettime just be a mailing list? Could we have an RSS feed, blog, Usenet group, and/or Mastodon instance? How would these things interact? Do we cross-post? Are they only 'views' of the list or are they distinct spaces?

# data[].attributes.body
I remember a comment coming up in the first sync meeting about how nettime can be perceived as a very academic and intimidating space. There are also messages in the thread about the largely white, male, older academic composition of the list. We need to think about how we can cultivate nettime as an open space to ensure all voices are comfortable to speak, and are heard.

Whatever solution(s) we choose, probably we will need to consider the need to pay for time, electricity, expertise, etc. so we need to think about how we can pool money for funding, however little.

IIRC Gmail and other providers have been dropping the list emails for a while due to issues with missing DKIM/SPF/... setup, and that was one of the initiators of this discussion.

Everyone on the net should be able to participate in the list and receive emails if they want to.

Do we go with a self-hosted system where a volunteer or paid person maintains a mail server? Or do we try to outsource the effort to a third party?

If we self-host, who will manage it? And how do we make sure people's efforts are sustainable and we are not creating situations of burnout, or recreating capitalist logics?

We should have a way to keep the list membership and archives safe so that in the event our host disappears, we can restart the list somewhere else.

Not clear who the current mod team is, but we are discussing in the thread on list about setting up a volunteer group.

We need to ensure that the host we select lets us import the existing archive of nettime. Felix mentioned an issue with Mailman 2 to 3 upgrade, which needs investigation.
