Archived posting to the Leica Users Group, 1997/02/17
[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]When I started todays mail reading I appreciated the idea to open a newsgroup. And I posted this immediately. After having read the different opinions I tried to observe my own behaviour in reading mail vs. reading newsgroup: I start reading the mail, thus I get the Leica stuff first, which I like. I always thought it was the topic which cleaned the mailing list from garbage, but if there is any danger (and I think there is!) that a newsgroup might decrease the quality of the information I'd rather prefer the mailing list, since I had no problems with binaries, pinholes or cereales spoiling very well founded information and from time to time a high level sense of humor. IMHO the worst solution would be a mailing list AND a newsgroup. christoph
