How About a Forum, I'll Supply the Space?

I agree with Dan Shafer in both of his opinions - the community is too
small already and that a mailing list is the worst possible vehicle for
facilitating the Revolution Community at large. A forum would provide
for all of the possible areas of discussion by segregating the general
topic categories, accordingly. The mailing list requires reading
through too much "quoted" material and too many "re: . . . ." topic
headings. It is a snap to find those topics you are particularly
interested in reading about and responding to, using the forum format.
I've got quite a bit of room on my service, and wouldn't mind supplying
the forum basics, since the "raw" forum format is provided by my web
hosting service. I'm not using it, so maybe the Revolution Community
could benefit from this, instead. The "moderators" could remain the
moderators. It would be an enormous convenience to me, a new Revolution
learner.
I also strongly suggest refraining from using the "Yahoo Groups" format,
it is nowhere near as friendly as the "standard" kind.
Let me know if I can help,
Sincerely,
Greg Smith
