Speaking as a small Listowner, only managing four lists of 35-195 subscribers, I, too, do not know about maximum file sizes and CREN, but it does seem from a series of retrievals of Soviet material from Listserv sites, that it would be better if limits were raised, and secondly, that it appears that there is a wide disparity in limits from site to site, no matter what the "rules" are. As was pointed out fairly eloquently by the owner of HISTORY in his paper at the Mid-American Regional History Conference yesterday, the number of users and and amount of traffic continues to increase, and probably this trend will eventually expoentially increase, so that it makes sense for CREN to consider upping the file limit number. Just a little guy's opinion, VMS
