Hi Linda,
Just wondered if you had any news for us on the future of the WDVL list?
My offer to provide hosting for the list still stands, naturally.

Hi David,
I'm afraid the best I can come up with is a password protected area on a
forum. You can set the forum preferences to notify you by email when
there is a post to your subscribed threads, but you cannot reply by

Thanks for the reply.

ISTR that they insert adverts into at least some of the mails, and you
don't get that much control over it?
Cheryl,
Yahoo groups is a mail list with a web interface that people can choose to
access if they want. It is not a forum in the same sense we are discussing. I
own/moderate several Yahoo and Google Groups. That is why they are called
groups not forums.
What Ruby was talking about are forums
You have limited control, on our lists it is text based ads at the bottom of
each email but not images, not html. By setting the list to classic format
and no html you get unobtrusive stuff most ignore. g
Our Dreamweaver group has something like 5600-5800 members so it works for
us.

Thanks to Linda and the crew at Jupitermedia for supporting the wdvltalk

Linda,
I'd like to chime in with my thanks for your efforts over the years. I've been
on and off list depending on job situations but WDVL was right there with me
when I made the plunge into web development several years back.
I remember the shock when MOU revealed his true identity. :-)
Yup, as long as it's OK with Linda and the WDVL crew to use the WDVL
name for the offshoot list, I'll set it up and send out the
subscription link :)
Since WDVL.com is a viable internet.com website, it would probably be
best if you change the name of any offshoot list.
Thanks,
Linda

You might want 8 publish the sign-up info for the companion social list to
this one. Many of the long term members are already subscribed but I don't
think anything has been mentioned about it for a long time.
Note, I aged with the others that this has been a beneficial best. I'll miss
