Replace/update the mail-list to one with a web-based interface. I feel like we took a HUGE step backwards
If this happens, I suspect we'll lose quite a bit of membership. (myself included) For efficiency, effectiveness, and manageability, getting out of the Yahoo! quagmire was a huge step *forward*.
Keep in mind that this is a mailing list. It always has been a mailing list. The fact that Yahoo! has a web interface for the folks that think "all the world's a website" was incidental.

One of the things I`d love to write in my spare time (ha!) is a webfora <-> email <-> nntp gateway. Moving the data around between different protocols is the easy part. Rationalizing the message threading and presenting a consistent view of such through all interfaces would probably drive me to drink. I'm a member of two organizations who I think would find value in such a tool...I can't imagine that the entire market for such a thing is 2, but probably. This is why it rolls around in my head as a pet project with no actual code written anywhere... -- Jason Sent from my Atari 800
