Since I'm pretty much out of the loop on Steering biz these days, it's 
probably best to hand it off. I'd be willing to be the back-up admin, if 
that is helpful. I do this for a number of lists, mostly RFU, so if 
someone's on vacation, leaves town, or whatever, I can pick up the 
slack. I remain listed as an admin, but leave the day-to-day 
admin/moderation tasks to the others listed. I'd also be willing to just 
hand the whole thing over, if that better suits your needs. Let me know.
