We've been considering a move to using a forum as our main discussion platform
I really don't like using web forums. I find them much harder to follow - you need to click through lots of different web pages to follow different threads. It's hard to see what's new, and what's relevant - whereas I can catch up on a mailing list by quickly scanning through the folder where I have filtered the mail. It also comes to me, I don't have to remember to go and check a web page. I understand some people do prefer web forums, but I don't think you should disengage those of us who prefer mailing lists. -- Software Freedom Day 2010 http://bit.ly/sfdmel-2010 A world wide celebration of State Library of Victoria Free and Open Source Software Cnr Swanston & Latrobe Sts, Melbourne and the community behind it. 11am - 4pm, Saturday 18 September
