Zed Shaw: Librelist to take on Google, Yahoo mailing lists
EDIT: Zed just addressed this with some basic plans: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=974744Overall it looks nice. The most interesting/controversial bit to me is the following (taken from librelist.com):Nobody Can Be Taken OffThe “libre” in the name means freedom for everyone to discuss their opinions, so nobody will have the right to boot you off or enforce arbitrary “list Nazi” rules simply because you disagree with them.That of course doesn’t mean you should act like a jerk, but the librelist.com philosophy is that healthy communities can survive and need “trolls”.
