[...] Having to subscribe to a mailing list and use an email client to interact with a group is pretty offputting for quite a few people.
As others have pointed out, it hasn't obviously offput you, so...
It's very intimidating to try and enter this sort of discussion as it feels much different than what people, for the most part, are used to.
Commenting on _the most part_: Having followed this discussion, most participants clearly indicated, they are prefering the old-school e-mail based interface; I simply don't get how you are deriving this "most part" from that sentiment... I agree, some people have Facebook accounts, are engaged in so called _social media_ (though I'd rather call them _something different_, but not social - at least not what this term is known for in Germany - but maybe, not even nowadays anymore...). But what really strives me is, why do you believe *everyone* else must believe in this/your way of life? FWIW, I'll blacklist this thread now... dunno if this is even possible in these "modern" interfaces... (don't actually want to know). Cheers. l8er manfred
