[meta-sig] Tutor list: looking for someone to take over

Hi folks.

As you might have read on python-list, I'm changing jobs.  While it's going
to involve a lot more Python, it's going to be a lot more demanding of my
time.  I'm trying to offload some of my responsibilities which aren't
"mission-critical" to me. Being the 'list-owner' of the tutor list is one of
those.  I want to be able to keep only a very distant eye on the tutor list
traffic, and I don't think I can do that as list-owner.

I've picked the four of you because your names show up on the 'answer' side
of questions in the last month or two.  Are any of you interested?

FWIW, I think the tutor list is doing OK, but could be doing better - we
have  about 400 subscriptions, but the traffic is light, and I see no
evidence of the tutor/tutee pairings which I envisioned when I proposed this
list.	We do have a fairly low noise level, which is pretty good.  I'm open
to suggestions for how to take this list forward, be it just change the
'list owner', kill the list, change the format, etc.

I'm CC'ing the meta-sig because I suppose it's a meta-sig issue.
