Hi, > First of all - it is not allowed to talk about how the list should be runned > on the list... Wow, this sounds... dangerous. :-) You're free to talk about it, but apparently I have been misunderstood last time I gave my opinion: we've been looking into all possible solutions several times and everything that a newgroup can do, can be done by a good email client as well (except for one thing: you have to download all emails while in a newsgroup that's not necessary). The email system offers many advantages over newsgroups though!!! What I meant is this: it's ok to give your opinion about it, but it's useless to have huge threads about it because it's not going to change anyway. If newsgroups got better functionality to protect the subscribers from spamming etc, then we could consider it, but right now email clients still offer more functionality. So please no big threads about it... but I'm always interested in opinions so feel free to email me privately about it (for example, when new technologies become available, I'd love to be informed about them so we can keep an eye on all possible alternatives) > There are currently over 2000 subscribers to the list. 2600 to be precise. > Web based list are IMHO the worst. > Internetsurfing is not free everywhere in the world and things take time > with the speed that is currently available around the world. Correct. > If you want to discuss it anymore - let's take it to the OT-list. Very good idea indeed!!!! Ciao, Joeri -- Joeri Vankeirsbilck joeri@...
