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
