Sorry to bring up old stuff people, but why did we forgo Yahoo for MailMan?

I have had a lot of experience with the Yahoo group and my personal belief
is that the yahoo group is a better fit for our needs.  It requires little
to no maintenance and there will be a limited number of support issues.  It
would be one less thing that we would be responsible for.

I am sure that Dave is more than capable of administering Mailman, but what
is going to happen when he graduates and starts to make his millions.  He is
not going to have time to administer mailman between spending all of his
money and sharing it with me....

What's more, is that the yahoo group has bigger potential to grow.  We could
post pictures, files and all of that good stuff.  It gives us a professional
look and feel that we do not have to develop.  There are just so many
benefits to using it, that I am not seeing any drawbacks.....

Please share your thoughts on this one.

Thanks
Carlus
