If you compare the forum to the mailing list the only drawback I can see is that one is no longer able to contribute via mail: | Mailing list | Forum ---------------+--------------+------------- Web Interface | Read [0] | Read & Write Mail Interface | Read & Write | Read Like BohwaZ already suggested, this could be mitigated by making it > possible to add the ability in Fossil to handle incoming > email replies to forum posts? > > So that people wishing to use emails could still do it by subscribing > to alerts and then replying to notifications. Of course only mails by registered users should be accepted, to keep spam low.
