| I personally hate nerswgoups. They generally don't work from inside firewalled or corporate zones that disallow direct IP connectivity; there's precious few good clients for the Mac; and the whole point of NNTP was to allow nerswgoups to be hosted by different servers (and yet you can only find the eclipse ones on the Eclipse news servers on the whole).On the other hand, there's a generation now who are growing up only knowing the browser as the entry point to the world; and mail clients are more ubiquitous than news clients are. Even your cited thunderbird is a mail client as well. That too has threaded views, the ability to kill (delete) entire threads - and more common mail applications let you define rules for different keyword triggers to apply your own organisation (labels, delete, whatever). In fact, given that your view of newsgroup-and-mail fits in seamlessly in your mail application, how different would it be if you just had mail instead of newsgroup-and-mail?All this aside - the key problem is having different technologies for different purposes (mail is for dev; newsgroup is for users). The web portal for the Eclipse nerswgoups combines the suckiness from both into one glorious hole.However, StackOverflow demos how you can reward points (and indeed, EclipseZone forums before them) and gain some kind of kudos for interactions. An NNTP server, by default, is just bit-bouncing, so there's never going to be any value add there. |
