A web only forum would probably suffer from lower participation and slower response compared to the mailing list. I find mailing lists and newsgroups most convenient, an additional web interface which allows reading and posting messages could be beneficial though, especially for users who want to quickly look through archives or only post a question or comment once in a while. Yes the analog archives are there but you cannot post from the archives (at least, not without subscribing). -- Klaus Johannes Rusch [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.atmedia.net/KlausRusch/ +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help/unsubscribe.html | | Digest version: http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help-digest/ | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives +------------------------------------------------------------------------
