My preference is to stay with yahoogroups - they're
obnoxious and seem to have given up the idea that you
can pay them not to stuff ads in your mail - but they're
also reliable and very very fast. Sourceforge is
a great institution, but I like having an alternate
way to communicate. I also think that having InterBase
users on our lists is a good thing - first, we're taking
potential support revenue from Borland, second, we're
demonstrating the depth and competence of the Firebird
organization, and third the competition isn't Borland
or MySQL or Postgres, it's Oracle & MsSQL. Lets not
drive more people to the dark side by fighting among
ourselves.
Cheers,
Ann
