I thought the idea that came up last time this subject came up was pretty good: rework Fossil's ticketing system into a web forum. Then everyone who clones the repository also has a forum archive. Import the current mail archive, and now everyone who clones gets a clean FTSable copy of the old ML archives going back years and years. I don’t mean that both purposes are served by the same code, I mean that the ticketing system is already pretty far down the road toward a web forum. If they do end up sharing code, tickets would be a subset of the web forum, not the other way around. You don’t get proper threading with the current ticket comment system, but both mailers I use these days lack that feature, as do most forum systems. I miss threading, but clearly I can live without it. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
