Hello Walter,

If D were to quit providing a NNTP interface, I'd loose interest in
participating in these discussions. Heck, (HINT, HINT, HINT) the fact
that Tango has a forum rather than a news group is half or more of
the reason I don't use it.
I love the news interface, too, and see no reason to give it up. But
the web forums have their advantages, too. That's why I'd like to have
a system that is accessible from both. Post on the web forum, and it
is also posted to NNTP, and vice versa.
Re cast that a bit and I'll agree; I have never seen anything I like in a
web forum that wouldn't also be in a well done web front end to a newsgroup.
(In other words, the only thing that forums have over basic newsgroups that
I see as an advantage, is the fact they don't /require/ a thick client.)
