I highly recommend it. +1 to this idea. I just subscribed to the digest instead of individual emails, but the digest seems to be sending two of every message or something. I'm reading it in claws mail. There also isn't a 'link' or 'anchor' in the digest to be able to move to a specific message. One thing I do like is that if I reply, it's to a specific message such as this one, and not the entire digest. I hate it when people reply to one message in a digest and quote the whole thing. However, one issue with forums is spamming, though there are some ways of dealing with that on an automated basis. It can be a hassle. An easy way to search the mail list would possibly serve the same purpose. As it is, as I rarely even use LO or OO and traffic on the list is getting heavier I'll probably quit the digest too. (My preferred word processor for most things right now is AbiWord and neither LO or OO will format .abw files properly. However AbiWord does format odt files properly. Go figure. ) -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
