I've tried out the webbased platform (to complain about FSFE "welcoming" RMS' resignation)
I think that is a good use of it with the news items and I want to try using it as a comment module for the blogs.
I know that I'm old-fashioned in this respect, but I think for online discussions no better system than Usenet has been invented, but mailing lists are the next best options.
I'm generally with you, but I don't want to condemn a new solution if it has the potential to attract more people. But of course that means integrating existing community members as well. So I hope we can find a good solution.
Is there any software that could provide a (bidirectional) interface between a webforum and a mailinglist?
Discourse has a mailing list mode which I have been using (kind of) for a while. Why don't you try that and give some feedback here? You can activate it in the settings.
Happy hacking! Florian
