Am I missing something here?
I thought the Navigation list was the people who participated in it.
As I see it we people are simply using a different server and address, which of course necessitates a modification to the lists name. The reason, if I understand it correctly, is because of reliability issues that could not be corrected with the original server. If I am in error, please explain to me what is going out of existence, and why should try to save what was demonstrably shown to be broken and unable to be repaired.
And also please tell me, if some one steps in to save it, the benefit of having two Nav lists.
It would appear to me that some are confusing the cart for the cargo. But then I could be wrong.

All you would have to do is take on the nominal manager's role. Can't be harder than becoming a professor of mathematics. GregR has already offered technical assistance.
