The one justification which is likely to remain is the desire to change the name, but somehow I don't expect the AOL folks would be too thrilled with that suggestion. :) janine -- Janine Sisk President/CEO furfly.net, LLC Mont Vernon, NH Phone: 603-672-1122

Re: [AOLSERVER] Responding to SourceForge-generated mail
For the folks who do not like the SF email on the regular AS discussion list, shutting down the regular list and making it SF-only would be exactly the wrong thing to do. Personally, I wouldn't mind getting a SF email summary once per week on this list, or even better, a web link to a summary page where I could see everything that has changed in the last week. I might look at that once a week, to see if there is anything interesting. The SF mailing list format is not very conducive to informal, personal discussions about a subject, IMO, because of all the formatting and everything. I realize it is a very *complete* format, but that doesn't mean it encourages people to participate in an easy way via email. It is much less personal, to me. (But, I have to thank Dossy for getting them to at least list the responses in an order that makes sense. I use elm, so trying to get to the bottom of these SF emails every time was a real pain. I just started deleting them.) What would be cool is if the SF email contained a response link that went to a web page showing the last comment, a box for me to put in a new comment, and automagically signed me in. Click, type, submit. That I'd probably use. Maybe I am just dumb with SF and this is possible, but when I go there, I get lost.

Re: [AOLSERVER] Responding to SourceForge-generated mail
For better or worse the current AOLserver listserv, in my opinion, has been one the most successful forums for communication that we've tried thus far. That said, it wouldn't make much sense to disrupt the status quo. We went ahead and created a new listserv to siphon off some of the Source Forge specific feedback - aolserver-sf (see Shaz's previous post). Suggest we give that a try and see if it meets the community's needs. We can always create additional lists if necessary. - n

The bugs, features, patches tracking email notifications could be sent to a separate list, handled the same way the AOLserver discussion list is. I just checked the SF admin page for the bug tracker, and the email address that the notices are being sent to is the AOLserver discussion group (ok, duh). If someone knows how to create a new listserv mailing list, say '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', we can direct all of the bugs, features, patches traffic to that list, and you'd need to sign up there to see them via email. Failing that, we could set up a Yahoo or other group to direct it to. I'd prefer it be handled the same way the discussion list is, though.
