Do you prefer mailing lists or web based forums?

If I have a threaded mailer like Thunderbird, it's better.

To an extent this is a matter for the GTALUG admins. Generally mail is
easier to work with, but it doesn't scale very well (ie, beyond many
hundreds of subscribers). So sometimes admins have no choice to go with
web forums.

Of course, both are possible. CLUE recently did a bi-directional gateway
between its mailing lists and its drupal-based website. So you can get
to it either way.

Keeping with tradition, I will be rooting against the team based in
northwest Washington state.
