>>Well Michel, consider this. I used to be an active part of foxpro-l and it was often frustrating to get 30-50 messages a day and out of those maybe 7-15 were bounces, 3-10 were spams, at least 2 flames and what was left may or may not be in line with the subject. :(

>>I switched. So how many others have too? Look at the experiance we have here. Arnon, You, Tom, myself, Lucent(were has he been by the way?), Ken, plus many others who are activly involved in UT. I ask, UT answers in less than a day or two. (unLike some other lists) But very often UT returns response nearly instantly. Did I mention UT is self moderating. ie we may get a little carried away at times but as a whole no flames, I'm yet to be spamed, the content is very, very good. UT has proven its worth again and again.
How can foxpro-l measure up to this? It doesn't.

>Everyone agree to this. The reason of this thread is because people from foxpro-l want to move here to benefit of the Universal Thread Visual FoxPro forum mailing list feature because foxpro-l is going down.

Well, the layout of UT is really productive. I have been working with a similar layout for my help program in my app. As well as making some VFP-Pearl-CGI ideas for a similar discussion group based wholely on 3D studio MAx and Caligari TrueSpace2 and related graphics topics.


UT is a genre of forums. :)

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animated contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsel or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
~Samuel Adams
