To: 'General Discussion of SQLite Database' Subject: Re: [sqlite] FW: How about a proper forum rather than an e-mail list Hi Mark, Well, perhaps you are right. But I am not going to take on that. I am a user of SQLite and can perhaps help with some posts and suggestions now and then. So I am just going

Re: [sqlite] FW: How about a proper forum rather than an e-mail list

Hi Frank, If you want to discuss the pros and cons of a forum, I think you should ask your question on a mailing list or forum about mailing lists and forums. Your question is very off-topic if you don't intend to start a SQLite forum yourself, but I think you could ask the members of this

Re: [sqlite] FW: How about a proper forum rather than an e-mail list

Hi, I know from experience that there really is no point whatsoever in discussing whether a forum is better than mail or not. People are just not going to agree. Just set up your forum and find out whether you're going to have subscribers. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk

Mailing list is the one true way; Look what IT forums turn into eventually... The only way to maintain high level of responsibility and seriousness of discussion is, alas, a mailing list 2011/10/18 John Drescher > My biggest reason for wanting a mailing list versus a forum

Re: [sqlite] FW: How about a proper forum rather than an e-mail list

My biggest reason for wanting a mailing list versus a forum is that I subscribe to 20+ mailing lists that all go to my gmail account with gmail rules to organize the content. If these mailing lists all were forums I would not bother with most of them since that would be a lot of work to check

Hi, I prefer mailing lists because I can read and write e-mails while I'm online (.e.g while travelling) and I can easily flag important messages, copy text and syntax in plain format or print (part of) an e-mail and I can also organise the message in the wy I see fit. A true geek uses e-mail,

Re: [sqlite] FW: How about a proper forum rather than an e-mail list

I see several advantages to having a forum: 1. Several subject forums as mentioned 2. Better view of threads with several levels being immediately displayed 3. Preview of entries and editing of them even after they are posted (by the author) 4. Formatted rather than plain text 5. No need for

[sqlite] FW: How about a proper forum rather than an e-mail list

I think that the sqlite-users e-mail list has enough traffic to warrant a proper forum. Has this been considered? A proper forum also can contain several subject forums, e.g. USER FORUMS: Announcements General Help with SQL News DEVELOPERS CORNER: News General OS specific .
