Re: considering closing this listserv

Diane -

I know what you mean.
I also believe that the group declined for other reasons as well.  This has also been true for various e-mail forums of various topics.  UC Davis has confirmed for me that overall listserv traffic has been decreasing over the years.

Personally, it does not seem worth trying to keep Medit-Plants alive.  It had a good run - as shown in the archives saved on Hort.net (if anyone is unaware of this archive, check it out - https://www.hort.net/lists/medit-plants/).

Perhaps hardest for me, as creator of the group, but there you are.

Activity began to diminish as soon as the list was changed so that a "Reply" went only to the person who posted the message, not to the list as a whole.

I had to remember to "Reply All" so this message could get to everybody, but very few people seemed to know about "Reply All", so lively discussions ceased.

Can we try it again for a while so that a simple "Reply" will be sent to the whole list?
