My opinion is that the Python list should dump the Usenet tie-in and just go straight e-mail. Python is the only list I'm on that has a usenet gateway. I used to love usenet back in the day, but in the present internet climate makes it unworkable, though I concede that e-mail is reaching the end of its usefulness as well. I wouldn't oppose a dual e-mail list and web-based forum system, provided the forum system supported threaded conversations in a clean and useful way (maybe like google wave used to). -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
