Indeed, I'm sorry about that. I got carried away by Groups.io and Nabble. Now at least we know the various options and possible advantages or disadvantages. ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/ma

It's the first time I'm hearing about Nabble, but it seems that it requires the website visitor to use non-free software. The page you linked has the following non-free software: - [[/util/jquery-1.7.2.pack.js]]. - This one might be non-free. This depends on whether "the license specified

So excuse me for bringing up the issue of alternative mailing list software again, but I only just became aware of groups.io, and my initial impression is favorable. As has been noted before there are a number of shortcomings of the current mailing list format, most obviously the difficulty
