I'm very disappointed in this decision. I appreciate the transparency about the number of comments you received being a very small percentage of subscribers, but considering the unanimity of responders in asking for this community to be maintained I'm surprised by this move.

I'd rather access OTW updates through the mechanism of cleaning up cat vomit (if such an option were available) than sign up to a newsletter. Every email I receive is a miserable burden and I deserve better than subjecting myself to that.
