Markmail has an interesting "search" mechanism, but I did not see how to
get a "threaded" forum-type of view. If you know how, please post :-)

Markmail (http://markmail.org/search/?q=uima) is another way to look at
UIMA mailing lists with a forum like view. This is a nice application to
search something in older messages.

One thing I'd like to do is to register our two mailing lists,
uima-dev
and uima-user, with nabble. This way, people would have a choice of
working with these either as mailing lists or as forums. We can
have a
link on our web page to these forums.
Once registered, users on Nabble who wish to post, can do so from
the
forum interface.
Any objections?

Not sure how this works. Does that mean that folks will
register with nabble, and no longer need to subscribe to
the mailing list?
While researching how nabble works, I found that they used as an
example, gmane.
So I'm trying replying to this list via gmain's forum view (using a web
interface).
With a forum view, people can choose whether or not to subscribe or just
go to
the forum to read and post replies. Of course, with a forum, you have
to have
internet connectivity. You could also choose to do both.
Will everything that comes from nabble
have the same sender?
In Nabble, (and also, I think in GMane - this test should verify) the
posts
appear to come from your email address.
What about spam?
Users have to be registered in nabble to post, and have to "subscribe"
as well,
to the mailing list. GMane has a bunch of things to persuade spammers
to go
elsewhere, and I'm leaning to *not* doing anything to sign up with
nabble, since
we already have GMane, and it appears to work well...
