We discussed this month ago, i.e. hosting a forum/mailinglist
on jogamp.org directly.
And yes, we go stuck in importing it.
Mark Raynsford did some digging already, i.e. patching the nabble DB,
which we put in hold due to resources.
I invite Mark to rejoin this discussion.
For me personally, I only use this forum via its mailinglist feature,
i.e. I only see and reply posts as email - yes, me an old dog :)
So for me: whatever flies with importing nabble emails,
but I want my plain old mailinglist/email 'frontend'.
Cheers, Sven
