First, Nabble users don't subscribe, meaning I have to moderate Nabble mails on a daily basis. Nabble won't or can't force users to subscribe users prior to posting.
Second, Nabble eats code listings etc. leaving users to wonder why their emails aren't displayed properly to "normal" users, possibly causing confusion or even frustration. I don't want to have users confused over something we can't control. Third, and most important, if I or another moderator forgets to moderate a Nabble email, or doesn't moderate it in time because of travel, sickness or whatever, readers of the mailing list won't get the post and can't reply, creating a friction in our community (those that use Nabble and those that don't). Our discussions take place on mailing lists. Period. Nabble violates that policy, creates work for our volunteers and confusion for our users. If you can make Nabble behave properly I'm willing to withdraw my objections and I'm sure other PMC members will too. But until then I recommend that people like Lance use a webmail service in situations where they can't use an email client. Uli On 22.03.2013 00:45, Bob Harner wrote: > Yeah, I 'm with you, Lance.
