I like elegant solutions and while eventually I can see a "pay to contribute" service, I don't imagine you'll get consensus in short order.

List provider costs are pretty reasonable, so if that's the hurdle to overcome I'm happy to offer sponsorship.

Regarding changing the e-mail list provider. Is anyone interested in
sponsoring it? There are non-free options, but it may be difficult to
always ensure the fee is being paid to the provider. I think finding an
agreeable free solution may have been the issue before? I've also
thought of trying to make a pay per message or byte solution (and this
cost could be dynamic based upon the number of current mailing list
subscribers). This could solve the who pays problem (the sender pays),
as well as motivate people to be more concise and clear with their
messages, and at the same time limit spam.



Any thoughts?
