Discussion and clarifications found on Talk Page

What's wrong with the current scheme

  • sender email visible to all - leads to folks needing to manage secondary email addresses
  • clunky archive reading
  • unable to respond to deleted messages
  • unable to respond to threads without configured email client
  • Unable to squelch out threads on an individual basis

Suggested requirements

  • public archive for browsing threaded conversations
  • ability to respond with just a web browser
  • subscriptions to individual threads, with email notification of new postings
  • managed internal to #obit -> archives, backups, ability to relocate if necessary

Host/Software Criteria

  • Managed internally
  • Open Source Software (1)
  • Transparency
Publicly accessible (not hidden)
