That immediately makes it undesirable from my
perspective. I hate having to
log into web sites to post when I could have just sent E-mail
Agreed. And for those
of us not on a dedicated connection, being E-mail
based allows for much less time online.
If both can be supported, fine, but I strongly prefer
E-mail.
As an example of both being implemented, while not exactly the same as
outlined by Jeffrey, is http://www.vwtype3.org. I subscribe to the mailing
list, but there is also a web-based 'doorway', where non-subscribers can
read and post replies.
I think it would be a step backwards to be completely web-based, but if it
were similar to the way the cctalk and cctech are both doorways to the same
list, ie. the web site and the mailing list were different mediums for the
same content, I think it would be a great thing.
I would enjoy the SPAM protection offered by the blog, as well as the
moderation aspects, but personally, I would still use the E-mail list.
