What is actually wrong with mailman? Why should one want to move self-hosted in-house service backed by open source software it can control and enhance , to some company-owned closed proprietary SERVICE that is off-site and uncontrolled? And again, what is wrong with mailman? My first thought was - maybe there is some other open source mailing list software that he is proposing. But I see no proposition of such kind. Except someone works/ed at that service company that is proposed to migrate to. If we know exactly what is wrong with mailman and why mailing lists hosting should not stay in-house and inside project-controlled space, maybe that way mailman could be changed to work better. It is not only question in mailman versus some other app. (what other app is alternative for in-house mailing lists that you have in mind?) It is question of willingness to put main channel of the project communication in the hands of some greedy closed company that they could close it any day they like. Not for and not against. Yust explain your motives not to be self-hosted. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.illumos.org/m/listinfo/discuss
