I disagree that a web-based forum be used rather than listservs. Not all participants maintain an active connection to the internet, especially since many of us travel and use airport/hotel time to review and respond to messages. Having messages pushed to us via email is far more preferable than have to connect to the web and then read message threads.

Subject: [Removals] Re: Remove me from these lists please! Why Not..



Using email lists and/or email distribution lists are not conducive to long term projects and/or the sharing of information.
 
Why can't there be a web-based forum?   Email lists have their place, but they are not conducive to historial archives or long term projects.
 
Anyone that joins today, cannot see, search, or benefit from discussions of just a week ago, let alone.. months ago..
 
The need for this will increase exponentially over the next 18 months.  WEDI needs a web based forum and drop this email method of communication.
