Re: [DML] DeLorean magazines.

None taken.  I've been around before the old school was built...

We have looked at this from time to time, and I have yet to find
something that provides a DMCTalk-like interface that is 
easily moderated and provides the output flexibility that Yahoo
Groups does.  Especially at the same cost.

Income from advertisers is nice to have, but it's not "free money".
There are contracts, legal entities for accepting money, accountability,
bill collecting, ad maintenance - its more work for the people running
the show.  More importantly, once you change over to that model,
you are now dependant on continuing that income.   What happens
when an advertiser gets ticked off and stops sending the checks?

The DML isn't pretty, and DMC News isn't gonna win any web 
design awards.  But, they work.  The information is there, the 
ability to add more is there, they are easily managed, and they 
are cheap enough that there aren't any worries about the lights 
going out.
