The PrivaPlan listserv uses e-mail but retains an archive of prior
discussions on the web.  Perhaps this avenue can be researched.

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.

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.
