Thanks Wes.
So clearly CATR doesn't have the ability or desire to maintain or find an institution to maintain CANDRAMA. And that is understandable. And list servers are considered old school technology. However many of us like this list and want it to continue...so, should we start making suggestions on how this can be done..I think the obvious solution is for someone connected with another institution (university or college) who knows how to connect with the IT department and get some institutional buy in (research tool that CANDRAMA is) on the political/funding end....to see if this is actually feasible.
Either way, it is clear that someone(s) will have to take the plunge and start digging.
I am not associated with an institution or business (as a self employed artist) so cannot really help.......because I know it is easy to say "someone else should do it" and hate being one of those back seat drivers.
Just a quick check finds articles like this:

Given the realities of today's technologies and the nature of online communications CATR has made the decision to move forward. BUT anyone is free to launch a new listserv if they like (as was the origins of this one) but the initiative will not come from CATR.
