First off, thank you Eric for all of the work over the years supporting
this listserv.

I really like Bethany's proposal for CLIR/DLF to host and migrate. Support
from the highest level of DLF combined with organization experience running
the software sounds like the most sustainable plan I have heard yet.

Thank you Bethany! DLF++ indeed.
