Hi, I would prefer it to keep a mailing list. It's a great way to centralize all information and discussions you need in only one place, considering that most of us do not subscribe only one.
I also like mailing lists. With them I can: 1) Keep track of what I've dealt with and what still needs attention 2) Mark threads as uninteresting and not see them again 3) Consolidate the communication of multiple projects on one screen if desired
I don't know of any other system that allows those capabilities.
I agree that email works well for many purposes. The one thing I'd like to see done differently is that our email lists be integrated with a web-based forum system, not because I particularly like using that interface, but because 1. Many others prefer it, and 2. Most such systems (e.g. phpbb) make it trivial to create new lists/groups. I think it would be useful if each library review got its own list. -- Dave Abrahams Meet me at BoostCon: http://www.boostcon.com BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
