Wow, too bad. I much prefer a listserv –
where the messages all come to me “live” - rather than an online
forum, where I must log in and manually refresh. Response time to urgent
questions will only increase, and dare I say, participation will likely
decrease (I hope not too much).
I understand the technical issue, but I
am disappointed. BTW, (and I hate the comparison) is the Avid-L going to a
forum mode as well?

Subject: General announcement to
all Avid DS mailing-list participants !
Hello
everyone,
Due
to recent events with the Avid DS mailing-list and its fragility regarding
virus infections and mail distribution stability, I have taken the decision to
migrate this service to the more robust and
secure environment of the Avid
Community Forums.
The
Community Forums on Avid.com already includes an active list for Avid DS.
I encourage you to open an account and participate.
Over
35,000 users have joined the forums since their launch November 2005.
With volunteer moderators in all forums, there is a strong focus on resolving
problems and working with peers.
You
can register for the forums at http://www.avid.com/exchange/forums
If
you want to preview the Avid DS forum first, you can view posts at http://www.avid.com/exchange/forums/34/ShowForum.aspx
Please
join the Avid DS Nitris forum in the Avid Community Forums and offer your
knowledge and help to the current participants. We can regroup our forces
and keep a dynamic forum in a single location.
The
DS(at)Softimage.COM mailing-list will
remain opened for the next two weeks, after which it will officially close.
I’m
looking forward to seeing you in the new forum!
