It's rare
for a community survive a mailing list -> wiki transition.
Things that start out as wikis seem to do ok, but they tend to
attract a slightly different crowd...those who think a web browser
is "how you access the Internet". ;)
That's a good point. from email to wiki, just imagine what kind of attrition
rate you'd have
in a community that self-selects for old-school-ness.
I certainly know that to *me*, a wiki is about as useful as any other
webpage - which is to say, only minimally; I definitely would be among
those lost if classiccmp goes that way.
