I pretty much agree with this. There are only four problems with the Trisquel forum/mailing list system:
Firstly, the lack of a reporting mechanism for spam and suchlike. I can understand the possibility for abuse though, so I am somewhat ambivalent about this. Secondly, the lack of a proper LibreJS support on the Trisquel site (which is something we really should have, considering IceCat and all). Thirdly, the lack of a dedicated announcement subforum and complementary mailing list. Finally, the lack of a mailing list for the Troll Hole. These are all things I think could be added to the existing functionality (how hard can it be?). One final note is the whole issue to do with threads getting squashed when there are lots of replies- this is a minor concern since exchanges rarely get this long anyway.
