[Cooker] Cooker's forums ?

2003-11-11 Thread Cooker7

It's maybe an old talking theme,
but mailing lists are not very easy to use.
A forum could be better and more easy to find the things we wants to see.
What is the general advice ?
Why there's not already a forum?

I strongly disagree. Forums are much harder to use, each has it's own
web interface. A mailing list can be filtered with the usual mail
tools and I can archive the postings I want to keep. If you want a
forum version of the cooker list, you can use gmane.org.

I hate Forums as opposed to Mailing lists.  The web interface is slow and 
clunky, and I have to be connected tot he net to be able to use them.  Just 
set your mailer to thread messages and don't delete everything.

no, thanks

i would not be able to contribute to the ml if i were forced to use a
clumsy interface like a forum.
mailing lists are easy to use!
and if you want to search back in history you can use web archives.

N, please! No forums.
Mail is much better to handle.

Liebe Grüße, Nora.
