Hi, we've decided to close the vbox-users mailing list as the traffic is very low and the VBox forums at http://forums.virtualbox.org/ are a better place to ask related questions. Of course, before opening a new topic you should search the forum if your answer is already there. The vbox-dev mail

I too much prefer the mailing list format to that of the web forum. Since you are keeping the dev mailing list, is it really that much burden to also maintain the users list? ___ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mai

2010-03-04 Thread Charles Stroom
I fully agree with Joep: it is a pity to close the mailing list and I would certainly support a plead for reconsideration by Sun. But I also want to thank all contributors for their shared wisdom in supporting vbox (used vmware for a long time, but have recently and happily made the switch to vbox)

I always read this list to be updated what's going on and I think it's a bad idea to close it. If the list is so low in volume it should not be any problem to keep it because its not that hard to administrate a mailing list and there is very low cost to running it.
