An LW post is a mailing list, in a way. I'd say go ahead and put up the post for now. Mailing list can be added later.
Only in a way. It's as easy to set up a mailing list as it is to create a post, but the post is a short-term solution, so I don't see any advantages in doing that.
The stronger our reply notifications are, the more like a mailing list it becomes. If we could subscribe to posts, for example, then a post would be just like a mailing list, but with easy threading and archival.
Posts don't have named threads. Google groups and gmail provide threading and archival. Gmail allows to set up custom filters. Group admins can manage membership.
All that is good, but we can get there later. I don't know if there are more than three of us yet. Once there are more than six people who want to discuss the software, we can look at better mechanisms.
