Hi folks,
I just wondered why there still is this uncomfortable and obviously
outdated newsgroup software in use.
Perhaps it'd be more contemporary to have a 'real' browser-based forum
to which everyone can register and post D-related questions&answers.
So, my recommendation would be to establish a forum based on phpBB or a
similar framework software (btw, it's free and open source, so don't
worry about possible
costs!) at forum.d-programming-language.org
To give D a further community 'push', I and a friend of mine really
would like to set up all required things if wanted.
The reason I'm asking the newsgroup directly is to have the forum that
can be reachedunder the official D internet URL, so that it won't be a
'third-party' driven one
or something like that.
Even if this idea should be a bit too 'large', please do fix the http
interface for the D main newsgroup thread - it's not working for me and
only gives back a
connection timeout.
I like what we have (newsgroups), probably because i use opera.
On the http interface, slow as hell. There are no images, no videos, just
a few lines of text, i don't understand why.
