Mailing list -> forum (was: Re: [ODE] list archive broken)

[Simon Barratt]

I'd rather we just have two mailing lists.. One kind of ode-devel and one just 'ode'.. 
Then development matters / techy discussion can go on and the helpful people can help newbies to ODE in the general one.

Though I'm never likely to be as active as Jon I agree that I go to forums less than I read each mail coming in the inbox :)

A forum, you have to GO TO.
A mailing list, you get in your inbox.
I would be (much) less active on a forum.

Cheers,

Forum is easy to set up....
Mails can't do more than a forum...
I made a forum for ODE as example on:
http://ode.petrucci.ch/

If Russell wan't made one, you can use this... I have enough space (100MB) should be enough, and the server is fast :D

Bye, Adriano

PS: The forum was set up in 30minutes, it is only to show that a Forum is easy to use and more efficient to search something, because it has differents section, and every section is ordered by date (like emails).
