I don't see in what way a mailing list is superior to a newsgroup. But I do see several advantages of a newsgroup: * Clear thread structure (collapsable trees in standard news readers) * No filtering on reader's side necessary * Inappropriate messages can be removed after the fact (by a moderator) * Own messages can be cacelled by sender in case of error * Subscribing and unsubscribing is easier for a reader A newsgroup is no more complicated to set up from a reader point of view than mailing list access. No exotic software is needed, the newsgroup can also be web interfaced. Is there a specific reason why the fedoraproject chose to use a mailing list instead of a newsgroup?
