But here's some of the reasons why an email-meeting wouldn't be effective: - Just as IRC is inaccessible due to timezones and time constraints, so too are mailing lists also somewhat inaccessible due to people not wanting to be on too many mailing lists, primarily because they don't want to be bombarded with long threads. That's a turn off for many unfortunately, no matter how much good is harvested from a thread.
A "news" interface could be an option. You do not need to download everything, only headers, and wievers supports things like "watch/ignore this thread". Connecting is easier than subscribing to a mail list, and it can also be kept private. Email addresses need not be published, so no further spam. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
