I agree. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Swamper Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 12:42 AM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Re: Unscribe question You seem to think this is an all or nothing thing. I said "some of the discussion" and I'm sure the mailing lists will always be around but the message boards do have their place. The *thing* that was pointed out in this thread is nice and more active than I thought it would be and there are *more* than a few using it but it's not operated by the Fedora Project. My remark about the corporate mind was intended as something that might get them *it* to consider setting up a message board at their site. Why not? It would get used and would be an alternative for the folks that want something besides this mailing list. It doesn't mean the mailing lists would stop being useful; it just means we would have yet another way to keep up to date on all this. For me, email is something I've been trying to avoid as much as possible because of the spam problem. Many of the people I used to exchange email with are using message boards now and more than a few are even setting them up on their own sites. I think this is a trend that will continue because they *are* useful and an alternative to email.
