This was a brief discussion in the OFF TOPIC forum. Is a list really worth the effort these days? Lists were very cool 5 years ago. I recently un-subscribed after the last round of server barfs. Forums are much more easily maintained, and I get to check messages on MY time, and can filter based on forum topic, as long as the topics are granular enough (A/D forum, PWM forum, LCD forum, etc.)

My .02 when what you were asking for was help.
Sorry, I'm a Windows dude.

Hi, yes i agree totally. the forum is better. But we have 500+ subscribers to the mailing list that dont want the forum, they prefer the mailing list.

How do i convince them to even try the forum?

Windows...yuk, give linux a try, you'll see that windows equates to mailing lists and linux to the forum !
