Hey,

I would like to suppose that we move from this list to
community.plone.org, there is already a category for us.
I think moving there could make it easier for people to join, because
the entry level to join is lower than signing up to a list :)

Cheers

If you are using only one mailinglist there is no problem switching to a
forum. I am using more than 10 (and as I have learned, there are many
people using many more), I can update tham all with one click in my
mailclient. Then I can read them whereever I want with one GUI, without
having to be online (train, park, ...).

Using more than 10 fora means:
... More than 10 logins,
... more than 10 GUIs (O.K., not every has its own GUI, but many do),
... having to be online to read and write,
... needing www-access (mail-forwarding into company is not enough).

just my 2ct,
Gert

+1 on what Gert says.
The old "listserv vs. forum" conversation...some prefer one, some prefer
the other.
I don't go to forums, but mail comes to my inbox, that works better for me.

The solution is both options available - one example is Yahoo groups -
the choice to receive posts as e-mails and reply same way, and to view
posts in a forum UI.

Does the product running community.plone.org have this ability?

Yes, you can receive posts as emails (digested or one at a time) and you
can reply by email. You only have to go to the website to make a new
post, and the developers of Discourse are working on that.
