Gary,
I absolutely agree that the email is the key. If it gets hard only a few
will contribute or reply. This puts a lot of pressure on Cadence to make
the responses vs jumping in when needed. Seems to me "Cadence" would
benefit greatly if the email posting/reply portion works as it does on
Freelists with the web serving as an archive and alternate way of
reply/posting.
Regards,
Gerry

Ok, now for something a little different...
The people who subscribe to this list have different levels of
experience with Allegro and PCB design in general. For those who are
relatively new to Allegro and PCB design, this list is extremely
valuable. For those of us who have been using Allegro and designing
PCBs for many years, the list is not as valuable.
We typically give help more than we receive it. If it is too much
trouble to monitor the threads, we probably will not bother. I
typically don't seek out the forum for answers. When I'm checking my
e-mail and see someone with a problem that I know the solution to, I'll
respond if no one else has (since it's very easy). I almost definitely
will not look at the new web site just to see if there are any threads
that I could contribute to.
Do you see my point? I believe that the e-mail forum is the best that
it can get for help from the user community.

This is not a benefit. You get MUCH better and faster support from the
everyday people on this list than you do from Cadence !!!
