Sure thing. I've gmail "starred" this thread and will probably do it sometime in the next couple of days.

Thanks! Gmane fixes this very well. Any plans to post a link to Gamne (or similar) from the main mailing list page? Thanks, Ezra -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Reynolds Sent: Monday, July 10, 2006 9:57 AM To: users@tapestry.apache.org Subject: Re: Why I hate mailing lists Using gmane, you can access any mirrored mailing list (including all apache mailing lists): * using a web-based threaded reader with search * using a blog-like, flat interface with search * using an NNTP news reader * using any one of four variations of an rss feed You can even search across multiple mailing lists at one time. As far as I am concerned, this is much more flexible than most forums. Go to http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.tapestry.user and try it out. With gmane, might even learn to love mailing lists!

They are so 1983. Why don't all teams follow Hibernate's (and others) lead and choose a simple Forum (phpBB in the case of Hibernate). It (like google/yahoo groups) is free, keeps all the old posts, is automatically topically "threaded", is entirely searchable, if you're addicted to email you can get posts as emails or, if you prefer, receive daily digests. Why would anyone continue to use an outdated technology like an email list? > > Thanks, > > Ezra Epstein > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
