Discuss mailing list

[Jon Hebb <somebodyrocks AT gmail.com>]

We have tried forums several times over the years. It doesn't usually pan out very well and historically has had poor participation.

As a community, we can choose what we want to do... if the membership demands a forum then so be it, but I personally just don't see it working.

M/l is nice for members like me who post maybe once or twice a year. (I've posted twice today... I think that's about my quota haha)

A few other people and I were talking about possibly starting an OpenNIC forum instead of using the mail list.

Some possible benefits:

- Being able to look back on conversations easily

- Being able to organize all domain proposals in an easy to browse way

- Much easier for people who are new to OpenNIC to look through 

Some possible caveats:

- We'll need active moderators to manage the forum

- Spam could be more of an issue

- We don't know how many people will switch over from the mailing list to use the forum instead.

What we think about this? Do most people want a forum, or are we just going to stay with the mailing list?
