Re: *** ADMIN: Problems With Mailing List



   Just catching up after a week off.
   I have some experience with PHPBB.   We use it internally to share
   information amongst our developers.

   Scott and I have already had discussions re System i Developer hosting
   this forum.  The only thing currently holding it up is me having enough
   spare time to create the new "home". I hope to be able to get that done
   later this week.
   It would be helpful to know if there are list members who are
   experienced in administering PHPBB which is the software we will be
   using.
