Mailing lists and forums I guess both have drawbacks and advantages. I am sorry if I sounded biased, and was off topic. I still think some kind of innovative new messaging/forum/blog/mailing list reimagining sounds like a fun project. But I do understand its not a feasible option right now for mageia. I definitly think im gonna ponder this more. I do have experience in php and other web related languages. Again sorry I was off topic in the other thread, and thanks for the healthy debate. Its refreshing to hear some brutal honesty and sense. If anyone is interested in talking more about this I would certainly be grateful for some constructive criticism from such a knowledgable group. I hope I did this right. Trying to make it a new topic.
