One can't post to Haskell Cafe through the usenet/NNTP/google group interface...

Hi,
I think it might be valuable to have a web forum. Not as a different interface
to the same community, but as a different community.
Perhaps the sort of people that prefer mailing lists and the sort of people
that prefer web forums are different after all, and a community that grows up
around

Are you strictly devoted to phpBB? I think that fluxBB is a decent

I'd only really go on a Haskell forum hosted at haskell.org. If there

browse than list archives? Especially given that there
I agree. A web forum would be more friendly to newcomers, easier to browse,
and better organized, than the mailing list.
Some people will still prefer the mailing list of course, but I think there
will be enough demand to justify a forum :)

Well, I thought that it may be a more comfortable way to communicate between
us. Specially for newcomers. Don't forget that Haskell is a growing
community.
It's just my opinion.
