no, its just wp and email updating using postie plus a bit of tweaking here and there. All we need is space on skunkserver, mysql and php (WP requirements) and integration.
Ill offer my time to set it up if agreed upon and once its set, haina mambo ingine.

I set this up to demonstrate that its possible to do archives of lists that actually are good looking and searchable. And to take care of aki's concerns about OT emails, aither moderation or several lists, e.g. energy@skunkworks, IT@skunkworks ...e.t.c. and all posting to the various categories on the list.

@Areba.

Brilliant!! does it work with our mails or do we post on the site? i see it's currently updating itself.
Or are you updating it?

Considering it's wordpress, can we host the thread's we've been talking about on the site? is there a cost implication to this site?
What is our bandwidth capacity? and the space allocated to the site?

hehe
pole about the bombardment, just looking at all these things.

My view on this.

Anyone thought of incorporating the forum to a wiki?

trust me @jonas, its not as straightforward. Shutting off the mailing list is not a very clever idea, but then again, who said shock therapy does not work.

Buck to my argument @aki on the listeners:
i have noticed for instance that the moment i have any ranting about KDN esp on the poor quality of their services, i get almost instant responses from the powers that be when i post this to the mailing list, this is because someone that recieves this email forwards it to someone who forwards it to someone untill something gets done. No amount of stackpoverflow type thing can handle this.

and while were at it, i did this last year and got lots of mixed responses, i redid it about a month ago and proposed it to some guys as the possible future of skunkworks. Id love to hear your comments:

I think it needs to be a clean cut as being on the mailing list AND
having to check the forum will not work. Maybe just shut down the
mailing list at a given point and add an auto-reply with a link to
the forum?

I am almost sure phpBB has a function to email all new posts for those
who prefer to just read emails. It would require signing up but so it
did to get on the list.
