Re: IGLU@eGroups (was: is there newsgroup for linux-il ?)




just some comments about various people's concerns:

1. never say "there are plenty people here that can implement..". this
   never led us anywhere. you think it can be done? do it and ell us when
   you have it ready. you have the right to talk about it, but realize
   that you won't get it done anywhere.

2. you are concerned with moving the contents to on-line chat etc? don't
   worry. enough people will stick to the email method, because, like you,
   they prefer this method. if some people want to use on-line chat for
   their interaction - let them do that, and don't impose on them the
   usage of _your_ prefered method of communications. and if _most_ people
   prefer on-line chat, who are you to stand in their way? 

3. the point of routing email via the USA instead of via a local (israeli)
   point is quite valid - most ISPs have plenty of bandwidth to the IIX 
   (israeli internet exchange), while they strugle for every free byte
   of bandwidth abroad. ira - can you comment on this issue, using
   real-life experience (e.g. do you know of another mailing list that is
   mostly israeli, that uses a USAian list archiver?).

4. having more features cannot hurt you, as long as those features are not
   forced on users (i.e. users can use one feature independently of using
   the rest of them). in time you'll be able to see which featuers
   actually get used, and which have died off. one example is the on-line
   forums people tried creating. they went on implementing them, and
   eventually (as far as i _heard_ on this list), only those that work
   with large forum providers - have survived.
   
that's all i have to say (for now.....)
