I can think of advantages; Better Thread organisation and seperate topic areas for drivers, patches, ide, ... Being able to cheery pick threads of interest, and completely ignore others Not having to dump your inbox after a week away just to catch up Moderated forums (Off-topic threads policed and deleted) Read only forums (write for registered/invited members) I'm sure somebody will enlighten me regarding the disadvantages. :) Andrew - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
