I followed it, even if it was a bit tricky.
1) For most google groups, you can subscribe by email. I think this is
sending an email to:
[email protected]
It would IMHO be outrageous to exclude people without a google
account.
2) I suspect that plain text is not just for old timers but also an
accessibility issue.
3) I read mail in plain text, in gnus. I cannot imagine using a gui
mail reader for lists -- it would take at least 10x the time. I
frequently see replies where intead of "> " ahead of the quoted text
as it should be (or some other quoting style), instead the quoted text
and the new text looks the same. Probably in html it is a different
color, or something. This is not reasonable; email should have a
plain text part and it should be properly formatted. If tools are
broken people shouldn't use them.
The next thing you know we'll be using discourse :-(
