Yes, they do. Jive isn't open source, so the intention is to replace it at some point. As you've identified, the main problem with the current MailMan/Jive setup is that they both think that they 'own' the lists, and stuff sometimes gets lost between the two. There are rumours of a web interface to allow you to post to MailMan, but I haven't seen it appear yet. > The SunLabs created mailfinder3.sfbay site we have inside Sun for > our internal lists has a very nice interface and powerful search - > if we could get that installed on mail.opensolaris.org I would love > it, but there's a number of other open source mailing list->web > archive tools I'm sure we could use too. I've used it too and I agree it is nice. However it seems a bit slow (just tried starting it, it took 40 seconds to display the search screen), and I don't know that it is open source. I'd be interested to hear of any experiences people have had with other mailing list/forum/archive tools. -- Alan Burlison -- _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list [email protected]
