Hi Stef, More than beginners, I would like mailing list for non-developers, i.e. bussines people, project managers/leaders, for discussing project feasibility with Pharo, sharing work experiences, etc. This mailing list would not contain discussions about the deep internals of Pharo (we cannot hide forever inside those technical details which nobody understands :). It is important for people with bussines or marketing vocabulary to know how to sell a product like Pharo to his coleagues or inside a company.
Besides, there are a lot of people which doesn't like mailing lists. They simply won't subscribe and IMHO it has nothing to do with the technical quality of individuals, this is a matter of customs (check out all of those .Net/Java/SQL forums out there like codeguru.com or db4o.com). Maybe in the middle or long term, having a web forum would be a good idea.
Regards, and happy new year.

+1 on this train of thought I also see a difference between the people building/maintaining Pharo(-Core) & Pharo(-dev/web) and those using Pharo. I am not a mailing-list person - I prefer the online (Nabble) discussion forum - so I don't have email overload problems but a separate forum would be useful. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Pharo-beginner-mailing-list-tp4231887p4235808.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
