Well there is this mailing list and the Docs on the the google jallib page. You seen to think a forum would be an improvement over what is currently there. Why? Maybe what is needed is a JALv2/jallist Group on yahoo like the current jallist. That way newbie's can ask and get questions answered without cluttering up this, developers, list. As it is now the jallist FAQ doesn't even mention jallib. A better jallib FAQ would be easy to create based on the questions the jallib group received. > I am not trying to upset you, I am trying to please you.

The thought of you setting up the forum to send posts from the forum to both jallib and jallist bothered me. I do not believe you meant to offend anyone, but it seems it did. Your intentions were good but your implementation was faulty. > For the future, it may not be best to do mirroring however I assure > you that there is a better solution for you then using yahoo jallist > and google jallib group. > As I said above. I see the need for a USERS jallib group but you have yet to convince me that a forum would be better then a group list. JalV1 started and flourished without a forum. I use forums for other topics but I personally find them cumbersome. I can search a mailing list faster to get to what I am looking for then I can search a forum. BTW I do NOT have Broadband so searching a list that is on my computer(s) is faster then connecting to a forum. > With a forum like the one I setup, you can have many mailing lists > under different topics.

I commend you for your zeal and hope that we can come up with a solution that will work for all of us.
