Bartt,
The RSS feed sounds good.
Notifications don't work because you have to explicitly call notifications::new to generate the notification. The CVS forum insert adds the data through pl/sql I believe.
Lars,
Where is the mailing list and how does one "sign up" for it? If was are going to use a mailing list, can it be archived to the web site? I think that is the purpose of the forum.
So, if we can get email of CVS commits and archive it somewhere on the web site, I would agree to turn off the forum.
