[Gmecm] When are we going to switch to a forum?

[Ryan Hess]

bah... they're just afraid of change.

Forums are so infinitely better for all involved.  For instance - your ECM explodes into flames, and you need to know soon how to fix it!  Post a topic, and have email notification when you get a response.  The rest of us don't have our inboxes flooded with 50 "check the fuses" responses.  

If you're bored on your lunchbreak, check the forum and see if you can give someone a hand.  

I really do hope we move to a forum.  Or - how about just changing the archives a bit to allow posting?  Then I just plug in my email, type away and post there!  I really could have my cake and eat it too!  :-)

format, so that is what we will be sticking with.  Your email software
can probably sort list traffic into a different folder based on the
[gmecm] that appears in the subject line if that helps.  There is a
request in to the mailman developers to be able to include, at the
bottom of each email, a link to that message in the archives.  This
allows you to fairly easily go back and pick up the context of a thread,
one of the other advantages of the forum.  Hopefully this will show up
soon.
