Might be a language issue, then. The first Swedish translation that came to
mind was not *suggesting*, but quite a bit more imperatoresque (word?). Might
be the 'should' - in Swedish you don't use that unless you mean imperative
'Should!, no options given'.

Well, that's a choice. I participate in a LOT of mailing lists, that don't
have web interfaces (or paper versions). People without e-mail are completely
disenfranchised (quite a word, that. What does it really mean in this context?
My word book talks about losing voting rights...).

As you can see from my next line, I let Todd be, I just tried to inform about
_my_ view of the change. It does not correspond with _your_ view, OK?

See 'Language' above.

It's not. My 'beef' is with everything that makes things _more_ troublesome,
instead of making things easier. I don't say I have a solution, I just say
Lugnet got much more irritating to use. If that view does not correspond with
yours, so be it. But it's still one Lugnet users (not member, though) view,
and should be valued as such.
