Whether or not they updated (or needed to update) documents or not, their
site continued to run on the CCN with an active IP Editor. They only
registered LEGALINFO.ORG (running at Auracom.com) on 26-Jan-2001. In any
event, whenever they (organizationally) made the decision to set up their
VDN at Auracom rather than the CCN, the point Mark was making and I was
underscoring, was that it is very sad to see them depart - for a whole
plethora of reasons.

I see. Curious then that the IP stats presented at the AGM say:

Year	IP Accts
1998	185
1999	256
2000	213

Best wishes,
