Exactly, and no more need to remind people either. It takes too much effort anyway while we could be working on something else more important.
One technical concern is hosting. Will HOSEF/luau always have the blessing from UH? A mailing list is very light weight compared to a web-based forum. That will greatly affect hosting options in the future. -Vince
I think web boards actually use a smaller amount of bandwidth, however server CPU usage goes up dramatically. Most sites where bandwidth is a concern can save considerably on bandwidth usage by enabling gzip compression on the serverside. Most web browsers support gzip compressed pages, otherwise the server automatically falls back to uncompressed. This causes more CPU usage on the server of course. Bandwidth savings are about 80%. Considerable.
