Re: Keeping the ARSList going as it is.
To your point... I turn off all emails from BMC Communities however I would likely add a "stream" for ARSlist that does email me (each post/reply) and update my email rules to put it in my ARSlist bucket like I have been doing for the last +10 years. My ARSlist flow would basically stay the same. Jason On Fri, Jun 10, 2016 at 10:27 AM arslist wrote: > ** > > Joe et al, > > > > First and foremost: BMC is our friend.

Re: Keeping the ARSList going as it is.
Joe et al, First and foremost: BMC is our friend. It is their software we are experts in, and yes there are heated discussions at times about the actions or direction of BMC, but in the end, relative to the flexibility and power of a set of functionality that has evolved and kept current with changing technology, IMHO it has no real match. Sadly many companies have chosen to move to lesser platforms, c'est la vie. However, if we are here, we have not. Or not entirely yet. I can't think of a single reason BMC would want it's largest Developer Community to disappear [even if some BMC VPs from time to time wonder why it exists until it is all explained to them], so I don't see them risking our good will by interfering with a discussion group that their management doesn't understand anyway, and the BMC folks that do get what we are doing, are their developers, once again our friends. To clarify what Stan is doing, or what I thought he was doing: if he could find a couple of corporate sponsors I would keep the ARSlist running on the current platform, even if I feel the best route is now BMC:Communities. I fundamentally do not like personal donations, the people that contribute the most to the list are the ones that would donate. The people that learn and benefit the most from the list sit in the background and do not volunteer to donate. [the above statement is based on the people I have heard from who ask if they can contribute to keep it running on the current platform]. If we move the list to other's servers and\or someone else is running the list, I see no benefits versus moving the ARSlist to communities (and either me or other non-BMC developers running it there). It will still be our Community, a community is about the people not the technology we use to communicate with, it can still send emails, and I suspect most of you are on BMC:Communities anyway so now you just have to go to one place when you want to log in and search for information. I am listening to the concerns in terms of functionality and will work inside and outside of BMC to try to make it all happen. Archives and sending of email is easy. Daily Digest at bit more difficult so it might be a few months before that is in place [I have a few thoughts].
