Right - straw man argument IMO - geeks are not who concern me with regards to this particular tool, to be frank. > > > > drewjensen wrote: > > > > Finally - I suppose the other option is to stop using Nabble..and if > > anyone thinks that is the right course of action, now is a good time to > > bring it up? > > > > You should ask how many people have subscribed to mailing-lists without > receiving any mails.

Right, last time I saw stats thee were a few hundred people subscribed with the no-mail option - but it is a different situation really. There is very little posting via nabble and I don't really expect that to change, but there are some. It appears to be that more and more people are reading via the interface and using the built in search function. For instance I am interested in why the FR and JA announce list was so much more active then in the other languages, I don't really know why. Some folks seem to like viewing the Announce list as a type of blog almost, if you haven't looked at that you can see the page here: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Announcements-and-Press-Releases-f1829011.html I tend to use the RSS syndication - particularly the ability to aggregate topic/post activity from multiple ML to a single feed - also, Google+ [+1], Facebook and Twitter buttons where added to the topic pages and I've started to use these. But for myself the primary tool is my email client...it's really just about choice IMO.
