Why do you have to pay to set up a list? If we decide we need several lists (e.g. games, getting-started, and general), will you have to pay again? > But it was consensus that brought everyone the Open Source Listbox... Heh, true, there are occasionally times for decisive action. However, setting up a mailing list is a lot easier than rewriting the listbox (right up there with "I'll write my own EditField!" on the list of frequently underestimated projects). The important thing here is that we as a community have a single place to go, rather than splitting off in several directions, and that we all be comfortable sticking around there for the long haul. But, you certainly get points for speedy response. Maybe we should continue this discussion there. I'll go sign up now.
