I find the present eScribe mailing list web access is terrible for any
extended study sessions. Repeated slow html refresh times, and lack of some
threading options.
How about switching the REBOL list over to a better system ??
Mailman offer a great solution..
http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman.html
Mailing list manager with fast web access to archives, and monthly gzip
archives people can download.
typical example: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/image-sig/
It is well loved
http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/inthenews.html
The gzip archives are brilliant anyone on funky expensive modem connections
[Europe]. But also for everyone wanting to use the list as database, not
just a daily message stream. Thus the list archives are opened easily to
smart data mining, and rapid tool development - something which REBOl excels
at.
ie: re-organization of collective wisdom.
Rebol mailing list is not only the community hub, it is also the major
active documentation source for new and hidden knowledge. [example:
Rebol/View how-to]
