I can only speak for myself but the last thing on earth I want is a web-based message-board. I want the messages to come to me, not me have to go to the messages. The forms-based mechanism for replies is horribly clumsy on all the ones I have used, and the repositories don't thread properly, and people fill up their messages with all kinds of fancy HTML formatting. 20 mails a day is nothing. I can filter them, killfile a thread if needed, and keep the ones I want for reference -- on *my* disk, so I can refer to them whenever, rather than relying on someone else's server. No problem in having it both ways, with the list replicated to a BB front-end like LISTSERV, with a proper searchable archive and a form for posting. But please let's not drop the email mechanism: it's too valuable. YMMV :-) ///Peter _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users at maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
