As I said: IMHO Webforums can do everything the mailing list can do (which is not a lot) plus a bit more. (although I don't know if you can send responses via email) For me that sounds like a good argument. A good example how a forum should look like is http://www.delphipraxis.net/forum6_vcl+winforms+controls.html (a german developer forum, quite active, this subtree has 180.000 entries, the complete tree has 990.000 entries and is still quick, easy to use and good searchable) >I am definitely willing to consider the switch, but as >I've said before: the reasons for making a switch, should be good. Ok, I do understand. Let's put it the other way round: What functionality do you need? Btw: I'm mainly talking about the -help - group. I have no insight in the -core-groups, but I suppose for developer-communication you will use Mantis or some other bugtracker anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Octave-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/octave-dev
