Title: Re: [GZG] List moderation was: Dear John

I say go with a forum AS WELL.
GZG realted topics are already being discussed on other forums anyway. It would be good practice to offer an official one and bring more punters Jon's way.

Mine: Email list: reactive Forum: proactive Takes a lot more time/energy for some of us to be proactive than reactive. :-/   There are so many forums out there that I could participate in for a variety of topics and interests, but I simply have zero time to do so. So I'm a fan of low-volume email lists for this reason. :-) Mk I think this has been asked before, but opinions may have changed...... would it necessarily mean the death of the list if we had a forum AS WELL? I'd be happy with both running in parallel, so folks could frequent one, the other or both as choice and time allowed. I've had several requests for a forum attached to the GZG website, which would be fairly simple especially with Jaime's kind (and longstanding) offer to help run it. But I seem to recall that when this was last mooted, there were a number of strongly dissenting voices of the opinion that the list would then fold through lack of use and we'd lose several old (in list terms!!) and valued members, so the idea got shelved. Thoughts now?? Jon (GZG)   _______________________________________________ Gzg-l mailing list Gzg-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://vermouth.csua.berkeley.edu:1337/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gzg-l
