Barry sold BeeSource to Vertical Scope (Now Fora) some years back. So 
funding is not a problem. Lingering bad reputation from the TF wars is. 
Currently four volunteer moderators, one a moderator/admin and Fora 
provides a full Admin when needed. Fora controls the bad word filter and 
will not share the list with the mods.

Love that there are multiple lists and forums each with a unique flavor. 
sci.agriculture.beekeeping while dead, is still there for anyone with 
access.

And don't forget BeeMaster. Self owned, forbids all advertising, very 
friendly bunch. Just needs to hide their off topic chatter better.
