In essence, Statalist is run using majordomo software
as a courtesy operation by the Harvard School of Public
Health. I know nothing of the details, but I am
confident that
* if more were possible with majordomo
it would already be in use.
* no one concerned has any extra time that they
want to spend running Statalist; Marcello Pagano
and his colleagues already put in a great deal
of work, almost all behind the scenes, trouble-shooting
and so forth.
