Обсуждение: [GENERAL] Not sure this should be asked here but...

Well no one is stopping you from starting a forum. But then you've got
the herculean task of getting people to move to it from the comfort of
the mailing list. I'm guessing that's a non-starter.

Setting up a forum is not the problem.
The problem is that the value of the mailinglists is in the contributors
that use it,
and they, for the most part, really do not want to stop using it.

This is why the original thread was about expanding the web-interface to
the mailinglist,
that would allow the current mailinglist users to keep working the way
they like to,
while opening the system up to the rest of the world in a more
millenial-friendly way.


Did I just use the word "millenial?

sorry... I'll just go and be ashamed in a corner for a while...
