[at-l] [Fwd: Another ATML?]

I'm crossposting this since it does have a potential impact on the AT-L
.

Since this is the type of list that you want, and do an excellent job running,
why not modify the charter of the ATML to be this list instead of creating
another?   Seems like it prevents a further "factionation" of the online AT
community with another list, and clarifies the difference between the AT-L and
ATML.

IMHO ICBW,
