The online services provide searchable content, tagging, and the ability to rate, edit and refer to previous content. E.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/haskell?sort=hot&pagesize=15 > Having to track three places for information rather than one doesn't > seem like a good swap to me... It's too late. The number of subscribers to the Haskell Reddit, for example, is double the -cafe@, and there are comparable numbers of questions being asked on the Stack Overflow [haskell] tag, as here -- so anyone who only reads -cafe@ is already missing a lot of stuff. A lot of the community has already voted on the efficacy of mailing lists for large communities, by moving their discussion elsewhere. -- Don _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
