Full Disclosure list shuts down

The Full Disclosure mailing list which is at times an interesting source of information, other times entertainment and sometimes a source of frustration is shutting down.  John Cartwright posted a message announcing the closure on the site (http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2014/Mar/332).  

I for one thank John and Len for the list.  It is a shame to see it go.  I'll miss the technical components.  I won't miss the reasons for taking this decision.
