I also have one last suggestion: have you thought of adding a google group called blue-oblisk and making it an archive group (which is one of the settings). Then the content is searchable and directly indexed by google as well.

I think the whole discussion just started because the old mailing list was so extremely slow. I agree its better to have everything in one place. And the pure mailing-list on SF is fast. However to get more spin and attract more people the whole setup must be easy, otherwise it will be just an exclusive geek club :-) And some users just want to lurk around instead of subscribing to the mailing-list. To read for instance the CDK Mail Archive on sf.net is very stressful. A) Its extremely slow and B) functionality and readability is almost zero. The Google groups or a PHP Board would just work better. And there would be no need to get all the list spam which will be generated for sure, I am talking about user spam or discussions like this one, where only a handful of people are interested in. Well, but SF.net it will be. A last question will there be a WIKI style blue obelisk site, where every user can edit? For example the http://wiki.cubic.uni-koeln.de/cdknews CDK News site looks very professional. But the BO site looks very scattered and it is hard to find information. But that was agreed here before I think.
