I understood the proposal as a suggestion to move to a platform that easily
supports the arbitrary partitioning of posts by topic, such as this one for
Textpattern <http://forum.textpattern.com/>, and to begin with at least a two
topics, Dev and User.
These forums differ from listservs and yahoo/google grloups in a few regards,
such as allowing each user to indicate whether or not they receive responses to
a particular post by email (vs. just visiting the web). It also allows people
to browse posts by subject and to constrain searches by subject. I don't know
if any of the common forum platforms make it possible to email-subscribe to all
posts, regardless of topic.
Dokuwiki topics might be:
Customizing layout
Plugin development
Core development
Bug reports
End user support
Installation
I personally have no opinion on the matter. The only improvement I need is a
better way to search through the archives. I have a heck of a time finding
posts I know are there.
