Well, does this mean that dlang.org does not have strong
intention to keep this forum as the main gathering point for D
community? Because if you guys do, it is good idea to make it a
feature-rich forum, not a minimalist to keep the output
compatible with that of a mail thread. For example: I can't
edit my post, this is because a mail thread does not allow that
(i.e. one can't edit the sent messages)?
I've given the feedback. I will head over SO for now.
The forum is a web interface to an existing newsgroup server that
has been the backbone of D community discussions since the
beginning. The web interface (I've always found the usage of
"forum" in this case to raise false expectations) does not
maintain the authoritative database. Any features that are added
to the web interface need to take into consideration all of the
users who access it via newsreaders and mail clients.
