Exactly. I read SDL mailing list via my inbox. I never use the
newsgroup. Others do just the opposite. The point wasn't to _replace_ vox,
but to simply provide another means to access it.
BTW, for those interested, if you missed the post on vox-announce, there
are some experimental archives running (as of June 9th) of all three
lists.
