I'd like to know exactly what it is that people find so convenient about forums. I'd also like to know why the wine list archives can't provide the same convenience. Two things come to mind: * Ability to apply a 'star' rating to topics (called "sticky"?) that are enlightened and/or of general interest. (I think that designated forum administrators perform this task.) * Ability to post under a pseudonym (without going through the trouble of finding a free e-mail provider, creating an account, figuring out how their web interface works, etc.) * ... What else? _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
