But seriously, I'll use this opportunity to mention something a bit off
topic:
Lately I have been spending a bit of time on
http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/ and I must say that
the stack-exchange model is superb. Questions and answers can be edited (by
anybody), and upvotes/downvotes really help keep the signal to noise ratio
high.
Perhaps we could find a home for namd questions on
http://scicomp.stackexchange.com/?
This is actaully just me thinking out loud, I'm not even 100% sure this is
a good idea. But sometimes I wish I could give a mail here a +1 or -1 or
close as too localized etc...

Also, can the mailing list perhaps be set up in such a way that sending
unsubscribe to namd-l would actually work?

Best regards,
Ajasja
