Hi :)
I was trying to help get the nomail version so that no email would be delivered to the person's 
email account.  That way he would be able to use Nabble as though it really was a forum without 
getting tons of irrelevant emails.  Sadly i think i misinterpreted what the "nomail" option does.  

Forums are on the cards but as an addition to the lists.  Then people can choose which method they 
prefer.  There already is something called "AskLO" which is a modern re-imagining of what forums 
could be.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Just as a suggestion.

LibreOffice should convert to using normal forums. Lists confuse people and
dont want to get every single post.

Lists confuse the folks who've never learned how to use them.  I use the 
gmane interface and read the lists as if the list was a newsgroup. 
That's my preferred way.

LO offers the lists, gmane for newsgroup software, and forums via the 
Nabble interface.

If you were at the LO Home page, and clicked on Get Help, you would have 
been sent here:

http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/

That lists all the help options available.

Scroll down to the Nabble entry, and you end up here:

http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/nabble-mailing-list-interface/

This is a forum style interface for the mailing lists.

IMO, LO gives the user far more options for finding a preferred method 
of obtaining help than any other place I've been.  And the same for 
printed documentation.

FWIW, having used all three, lists, newsgroups, and forums, IMO forums 
are by far the most poorly organized method unless they offer a threaded 
view as the Nabble interface can do.
