Hi Sonja,
Sonja Krause-Harder
The first question is: do we need/want an official openSUSE web forum? Why? What would you expect from it, compared to the existing SUSE community forums?
For me personally a mailing-list or a newsgroup is all I need. But as Houghi says in <20060125150552.GB6865@penne> if we can find a solution which combines HTTP/SMTP/NNTP that would get folks closer together. Dinosaurs to the internet like me will use the mailing-list or a news2mail-gateway and newbies may prefer the forum because they are used to it. I do not think that we need an official one, because an official forum (in my eyes) would mean that SUSE staff must participate as well and frequently, which takes a lot of time to monitor the more it becomes available und useful. But if SUSE is willing to support this: I don't mind. But until such a solution (closed or open source) is available, please leave things as they are. bis dahin / kind regards Martin Mewes MCP 070-291, 070-293 -- http://www.mewes.tv/ - Homepage http://mbox.mewes.tv/ - Mailinglisten zum Downloaden
