Hi Peter!
I dont have an opinion about the alerts since I always browse the postings directly on the web...
But, I should let you know that Roberto Mello, Dave Bauer and myself are currently actively working on the migration of users, bboard topics, threads and alerts (as well as most of the contents) over to the new site.
Our deadline is August 12 (2002😉), just in time for Linux World, but we may "flick the switch" earlier than that.
And yes, we will use the new forums package.
