From: "Peter P. Yim" <peter_yim@bootstrap.org>
One of the reasons why ONElist was picked as a platform to develop our
UnRev community was that it offers a lot of features. In fact, they
added some more lately.
Besides having a good suite of administration and membership maintenance
features, it offers the following major ones now :
(a) Post and distribution of threaded messages.
(b) Files sharing space (upto 20MB) allowing files to be uploaded into
user created folders.
(c) Shared Calendar, with auto-reminder feature.
(d) Polls, with live results display.
(e) Links sharing, as contributed by users. (Ref my other posting
today.)
(f) Database
(g) Chat
Except for (a) above, we've hardly exploited any of the other features.
The original plan was to use this forum as the capturing front-end
(accumulating distributed contributions of threaded discussions, links,
files, ...) and then process by synthesizing and transferring over to
the Bootstrap Server as the physical repository.
So far, the progress on message postings (threaded discussions) have
been marvelous -- active user contributions, hypermail process
converting to HTML and archiving at Bootstrap server, Eric synthesizing,
... etc.
The rest can use some work.
Given enough volunteers, may I suggest that we have one person
designated to "moderate" each of the above features. That way, their
usefulness can be better and more quickly developed.
Comments, Eric? Doug?
Any suggestions, volunteers?
