Re: Mail list for Seoul GNOME users group

[RYU Changwoo <cwryu debian org>]

I think an officially blessed mailing list is always better.

But I also think an old-style mailing list will not work in Korea in
general. South Korea is the first country where Email began to die.
[1] [2] I'm a mailing list lover so not very happy about this. But in
reality, only 35% of the google-kr group members receive mail. The
rest of the members just read messages via web.

So the gnome.org list is good for the official contact point. As a
community for many people, I doubt it.
