Re: [flexcoders] Moving flexcoders to Google Groups- would you come along?

Well it I understand what you are saying, but why does it take over 12 hours for my post to show up on the form?  This is one more slow "pony" express mailing list.    Subject (Can someone help me understand this price info and what I get for it)  Post on 9/8/06 @ 7:01 pm Shows up on list @  10:03 am 9/9/06.  This is not the first time I have seen this.   David ----- Original Message ----- From: Steven Webster To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, September 09, 2006 12:30 PM Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Moving flexcoders to Google Groups- would you come along? Guys, this thread rears it's head every couple of months.  If we move to googlegroups, will we find ourselves 2 months down the line with a thread asking why we don't move to something else (or back to yahoo) ?   Seriously, there's a pattern to this thread ... any second now someone is going to ask why we don't move to Adobe forums, then we're going to be asked why we don't have a knowledge-base, and then I'm going to have to step in and moderate the list and say that we're not going to move the list for the time being, or split it into smaller lists, or all the other spin off discussions that the vocal few will have, and we'll ask people to move the discussion offlist.   Seriously, this list works for the majority, so if it's ok with everyone else I think the long-time list members here will be appreciative of us not hashing it up again.    Thanks,   Steven   Steven Webster Practice Leader (Rich Internet Applications and LiveCycle) Adobe Consulting Westpoint, 4 Redheughs Rigg, South Gyle, Edinburgh, EH12 9DQ, UK p: +44 (0) 131 338 6108 m: +44 (0) 7917 428 947  [EMAIL PROTECTED]com   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Tom Ortega Sent: 09 September 2006 14:39 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Moving flexcoders to Google Groups- would you come along? I'd have to agree.  I have almost the complete flexcoders in my gmail.  It's the fastest and easiest way to find help, besides looking at the docs.  I realize thought that not everybody has that, so I'm sure a better solution would probably work. -Tom2 On 9/9/06, Abdul Qabiz <abdul.qabiz@gmail.com> wrote: I don't face any problem with current Flexcoders mailing-list. I have been on this since it was started and never faced any problem. As far searching is concerned, I think it's little time taking. Since I am on this since so long, I have almost all the flexcoders mail on my Gmail or Outlooks PST. But I still search using MSN/Google, sometimes mail-archive.. -abdul On 9/9/06, ben.clinkinbeard < ben.clinkinbeard@gmail.com> wrote: Hello all, Frustrations with Yahoo's boards seems to be a fairly universal sentiment here on flexcoders. The comments to Alistair McLeod's latest blog post (http://weblogs.macromedia.com/amcleod/archives/2006/09/flexcoders_post.cfm - discussing the explosion of growth flexcoders has seen recently) raised the issue of moving to Google Groups. Personally, I think it would be a great idea and am wondering if getting everyone to migrate is feasible. With things like Flex-oriented search bar add-ins (http://www.eyefodder.com/blog/2006/08/finding_flex_facts_faster.shtml#more ) and smart Google searching (http://www.darronschall.com/weblog/archives/000240.cfm), I don't think migrating archived content is that big of a deal. So, would you come along?
