New mailing list

Post by Ivan Denisov »

Dear BlackBox community members,

According the BlackBox Framework Center decision I have installed mailing list software on our virtual server in Zurich.

I have installed and configured Majordomo 2 for new mailing list.

the new list is: main@blackboxframework.org

To subscribe, please, use web-interface here:
http://mj2.blackboxframework.org/mj_www ... extra=main

The list is called main, because I assume that we can run more lists in future as suggested by Oleg N. Cher.

The list has not been used for over six months.

Is it worth keeping it alive? or is it simpler to only have one communication channel - this Forum?

Historical note: Originally I was in favour of having a mailing list rather than using a forum. After using the forum I have changed my mind.
I am now suggesting closing the mailing list. Any comments?

There is no cost for keeping the mailing list alive. However it always works strange with some delays. It was my first experience with setting up of such a software (Mojordomo). I think what it was not a best choice or there is some configuration problem.

I am also happy with the board. However we can use mailing list as reserve communication channel. If we will vote for this question I will abstain.
