Of course I'd too like to keep the mailing list, but I do respect some benefits 
of forum... Please correct me if i'm wrong :

-when one has an issue and mostly tries to google the same (which possibly 
could already be a discussed topic) having it accessible on a forum could be 
much faster and without having to start a new query of the same topic everytime 
similar question arises.

-Forum like stackoverflow would be ideal as we could rate the relevant solve 
which again makes it faster for the seeker and does not have to go through the 
whole discussion to anticipate/get the actual solve.

Seekers will always benefit from forums and contributors would love to have the 
ease of mailing list.
So IMHO the weight is towards contributors and may be foundry could have a 
system which creates a database out of mailing list and +1(exactly as everyone 
of us are doing here but there's no SUM) helps rating the correct solve within 
the mailing list.

May be a little complicated but still not impossible.

Cheers,
Sudeepto

I dont know if this is permissible or not but as in the case with the 3ds max 
and Maya private mailing lists cannot some one start an alternative nuke 
mailing list of there own volition and to reduce the level of noise make it via 
invite.

I am also voicing out to keep the mailing list. Great to see all the topics in 
one place showing just the headlines rather than clicking though different 
things.

That's the new setup or the old forum? Yes, that behavior is useless, like the 
old forum. I was hoping the new 'community' setup would behave more like a 
support ticket with Tweak - I send a ticket (email support or go to the web 
interface) and I get a mail. I can reply with the mail or the web, except in 
this case it would be public. That's all I want out of it. I could then search 
my mail or the web interface. Anything more than that wastes my time and makes 
it less useful. If the new 'community' doesn't behave that way, I'm ready to 
sign onto the google version.

The only value a forum (or the new setup) has for me is the ability to search 
through the history from before I signed on. Whatever they do, I hope the list 
archives get transferred.

Hey all - does it really matter if:

we get the email
we reply to the email and everyone gets it.
the 'community' gets the email
if you reply online in the 'community' you get the email.

sort of like the list with the benefit of the online 'community' and the list 
being able to talk to each other, unlike how the forum worked when I'd send 
something online and it never ended up on the list so there were never any 
replies. The forum sucked, so it's good they are changing it.

I don't know what this new 'community' setup is yet (too tired to look at it at 
the moment), but if it allows me to keep my inbox folders with nuke-python and 
nuke-users and still get and reply to the posts, I'm not going to see a 
difference and won't care. That questions and replies end up online and 
reply-able from online  would be a bonus.

But hey - if everyone here jumps ship it's not going to be a 'community' at all.
