Hello,

A couple of motivations for a mailing list switch:

 1. Sometimes the mailing list delays delivery for 10 minutes to several
    days.
 2. There are usually lots of ads at the footer of the messages. Really
    confuses new readers (for me at least), and seems like it really
    pollutes such a historical dialog that may be referenced long into
    the future. How would it be if the 10 Commandments, Magna Carta,
    Bill of Rights, The Sermon on the Mount, or The Gettysburg Address
    had ads intertwined within them?
 3. Don't think HTML messages are allowed.
 4. Seems like digital signatures are always broken on messages because
    the list server slightly modifies them (?), so my e-mail client
    doesn't verify them all.

Why would you want to move to a paid solution? And why would you want
users to have to pay per message? This is the worst idea ever from my
point of view. We want to encourage people to join the community, run
full nodes, ask questions, come with solutions, ideas for improvements
and so on. Everyone should read and write and contribute as much as
possible with ideas in debates. You never know who can have bright ideas
in some contexts.

Bottom line is so far sourceforge handles the mail lists just fine. I
don't see a single advantage another mail list provider / system could
offer, except some headache and extra work for migration. The software
distribution via sourcefoge was cancelled for obvious reasons which I
fully understand and agree to, but it has nothing to do with the mail
lists. We have way more important things to brainstorm about.
