this is a notable issue i think.. since we promote free software idea.. we have to use free software.. google group is so handy and ease and use.. sometimes proprietary software is useful and handy than free things(or always??:D)
so the issue is remarkable.. we have a responsibility to use free software to promote FS concept.. hmmm.. as bincy said.. we have enough technical resources.. so will it be so hard to build up a free software based mail group?? forums /community .. those are not easy like a mail group.. i think we can uphost a dedicated mail group based on free software technology.. can't we ?? and this is a discussion group .. every one is welcome to share their views.. only share.. not to cut others...peace..
