    Yes, I also think so. Any suggestion? A mailing-list on Freelists (I can create and manage it)? A forum (I cannot)?

    Hi Enrico,

    We should see how Harbour-user group has done this or for that matter
    how Minigui Extended has done this. Such a system allows for easy
    viewing over the web and one can also download the messages on to
    outlook or other email softwares for reading at leisure.

    I maintain, that if we can view the messages on web, if someone,
    somewhere has a query on xHarbour, Google will show up the page and the information there will be useful to him or at least he can make further inquiries out there. As an example please fire a query 'harbour arrary'
    in the google search engine and harbour-user groups shows up as the 2nd
    entry.

    Just my two cents.

    Best,

    What system is Harbour using? A mailing-list?

    Yes, it would surely great for xHarbour community and would contribute
    to keep the old users and to attract new developers.
