[Zope-dev] Newsgroup suggestion

[Dody Gunawinata]

Because they are always slower...

For heavy discussion, HTML based forum aren't that useful..and in some

call (Europe,Asia)

HTML based forum would be great if, only if, there is an option for bulk
topic download, so you can actually download the whole
messages(reply,post,etc) in a topic in one go.
