Not really - personally, I dislike Nabble greatly. Terrible interface. I'm one of the ones who would prefer a forum to the mailing list - mailing lists are just a dead method of collaboration. I fail to see anything that sets a mailing list above a forum, unless it's to feed the laziness or forgetfulness of people who have to have the topics come to them instead of the other way around. I have GMail, and it's certainly not a replacement for a decent forum - even with it's unlimited space, it's just silly to think that ALL the Ivy users with GMail or an IMAP account should store their own local cache of messages so they can search them later. I clean out all mailing list traffic on a regular basis - I don't have any Ivy mailing list posts more than a week old. I don't want it cluttering up hits in my personal mail when I search it, and I certainly don't want to have to include search modifiers EVERY time I search my mail to omit all the mailing lists. I'll fall back on *shudder* Nabble if I need them again.
At least the replies on this thread have been mostly civil - I was worried when I saw Kili's reply that we would have a string of troll-bait like his.
