IMHO, we should be actively discouraging existing and potential UK AFOLs
from using any other messaging systems than LUGNET. I for one don't really
want to have to go round checking them all (and getting into arguments about
which is best!). So in other words, the problem I perceive we are trying to
solve is summarised by "a welcome and information resource that does NOT
have message sharing capabilities". That's why I wrote that a yahoo list was
unsuitable - it does not meet those criteria.
Apart from that, I worry that yahoo will sell all the email addresses they
collect to the highest bidder and I will then get junk emails; a likelihood
I feel is much less with LUGNET.
