You might well notice some changes on the home page today. The portal hasn't really had much TLC for a while and its been hard to find things and participate. That is changing. Today I installed the enterprise email gateway. This allows you to subscribe to a forum as if it were a mailing list. In fact its the best of both worlds, its both a mailing list and a forum. You can start, receive and reply to discussions using email or online via the web site and even both at the same time. It's your choice. We are having some configuration challenges with receiving and processing mail so the upgrade is not complete but you can subscribe to receive new threads via email for the Risk Management forum now and within a few days I am sure well have it all ironed out. As soon as we have this major upgrade completed I will send out an email and we enable it on all the forums.
