<p>I find the confusion of items about all sorts of issues and
versions in topicbox really confusing. Not that there is any
subfolders in tb-planning but we tend to keep to current
discussion threads. TopicBox would be infinitely more useful if it
was like a forum with more moderation and allocation of threads to
subfolders.</p>

<p>Currently Thunderbird communication channels are a bit

forums, but no decisions have been made so far. I'm writing
this to get a wider feedback on some of the changes up for

<p>Does topicbox have the same level of moderation available as
the mailing list? Although I suspect we haven't needed it a lot
currently, I would be wary of moving to something where we loose
the capabilities we have now - in case that does become
necessary in the future.<br>
</p>
<p>Personally, I also find topicbox has many issues. One in
particular that I do find confusing is the lack of sub-thread
capability. That's fine if you're just using the UI or just the
mailing list side, but then when you're trying to mix the two,
the UI becomes really confusing.</p>

<p>What would be the point of the newsgroup? What would it
actually cover? The only things I've noticed being discussed
there recently would possibly be better discussed on the maildev
discussion list...</p>
<p>As far as I'm aware, the newsgroups also lack moderation
capabilities.</p>
