Maybe this looks more like a forum?

The key idea here is to have an etablished system newsgroup under the
hood (for the more "conserative" users) and a fancy webinterface forum
(for the "new" generation). So to enable exchange between those two user
groups (the author also writes about the ides behind this software on
his blog) - and free choice of reader for everyone.
thanks for this proposal! Indeed, an interesting approach, as in the
beginning, I was also thinking about setting up an NNTP server (which
could even interact with the mailing lists).
However, the clear feedback I got from users it that they want "a forum
they know", i.e. phpBB or something in these terms. That's why I am so
hesitant against other solutions, although technology-wise, they would
make sense.
It's about the users and their needs, and even if we see things
different, we should follow their demands to give them a good
experience, IMHO.
But thanks for throwing this in!
