> That is a good reason to not link the forum with tor-talk (at least
until we can test what sort of audience it gets), but this isn't a good
reason to not have dedicated email list integration. The people who ask
questions on the forum might not be 'email people', but the tor developers
that support them certainly are.
Dear deity, I never wanted to link the forum to an existing mailing list,
or any mailing list. I think email integration is a bad idea. I want the
forum community to grow on its own. We'll find moderators and other
cluefull people that can answer questions and help others.
> Push communication channels are far more efficient than continually
pulling (reloading the forum site). If we don't have this then I'm pretty
sure most of us will quickly begin ignoring the forum.
Frankly, that's fine. I want people who want the forum to exist to pay
attention to it. We already know that tor devs don't like web forums,
having more email from some other community isn't going to change that. If
it did, more people would jump on community-support and answer questions.
