<br>
Why exactly is it better?<br>
<br>
I've just quickly tried that. What surprised me most is that it's<br>
invite only. Is there some way to allow people to join without inviting<br>
them first? This really sounds ridiculous for free software project...<br>
<br>
There seems to be something what they call "Guest Accounts". I have no<br>
clue how that works, but that is available only in paid plans.<br>
<br>
Also is there way to make the archives publicly available?<br>
