RSS ?

The last message dates from December 2021.
May be another link than <http://www.povray.org/rss.xml> ?



For my part, I've always used and still use NNTP.

I never came around setting up my old newsreader, Xnews, again. The one in
thunderbird I don't like.

Discord is a real time discussion platform. It's good for a conference 
or a team meeting. I use it for some role playing cessions where most 
players can't meet in person.
For non-synchronous interaction, it don't hold a candle to a good old 
news group.

Then, what is important for you may be irrelevant to someone else, and 
what is irrelevant for you may be very important for someone else.

If you are in a thread that you don't care about, you can use the «T» to 
mark it all read and skip to the next unread message.

Usually true - unless there's something under development by 2 or more people.
Then the posting to forum method is annoyingly slow.

Project management software has been suggested before, and would facilitate
working on small group or POV-Ray 4.0 development, in the instances where people
needed to iterate with realtime feedback while they had the opportunity, lest it
expire and real life once again took priority.

https://news.povray.org/povray.pov4.discussion.general/message/%3Cweb.66807cdd4bc5dc751f9dae3025979125%40news.povray.or
g%3E/#%3Cweb.66807cdd4bc5dc751f9dae3025979125%40news.povray.org%3E

It would be great if the chat logs could be saved and archived, so that the
development, debugging, and solution(s) would be available to the community
afterwards.  I'd hate to lose that aspect of the forum posts.

People just opposed like morons: hey bunch of, what part of 
irrelevant/casual chat you didn't get? my post clearly states that; it 
attracts people, it's like a online FAQ and might get more people 
involved in every capacity: users and devs. of it, which is what this 
project needs to stay alive.

If you ignore the message and just justify a negative 'coz it's the sum 
of all your fears, it is in fact, still a dumbass answer get it? Noen of 
you gave a valid justification, just "No" 'coz you want to touch my whee 
whee or something equally stupid
