List members may recall a posting I placed to gauge interest in an Australian based museum list. I received 41 responses on and off this list. Two were not supportive, 39 were. The two who raised concerns focussed on the possibility of fragmenting MUSEUM-L. The 39 who supported the idea were very enthusiastic to carve out a space of relevance to their cultural and information needs. The National Museum of Australia is pursuing the setting-up of a listserve. Funds are being sort and an outcome should be known in several weeks. Thanks to all for your continued interest.
