On a famous french mailing list, FRnOG, we have solved the problem by separating the list into several, like categories on a forum. Users can subscribe to only a few "sub-list", or to a "meta-list" that regroups all of the sublists. Now, every user is free to configure his email client to have all the threads in the same folder, or to have one folder by "category". I think they use Mailman, but Sympa also allows to do this. > I really really would despise giving up a standard, protocol based > means of communication for some shitware prepack garbage that is > going to cruft it all up with it's own stupid notions of "you LOVE > our way" Personally, I can't even think of following a project on a forum. And it would make me very sad, because I really love this mailing list. -- Guillaume Subiron Mail - [email protected] GPG - 5BC2 EADB Jabber - [email protected] IRC - maethor@(freenode|geeknode) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
