I'm looking at the discussion topics and wondering if a different forum structure would make it easier for readers to find the information they are looking for.

Instead of shoveling topics that haven;t had any traffic for 60 days in "Archive" while the discussions go on in the "Main" forum, should they be instead arranged by subject? Based on an informal survey of the topic subject lines so far, the division could be:

- Assertion-based verification and specification
- Coverage metrics and analysis
- Tools and languages
- Verification methods, strategies and planning
- Miscellaneous

Or would another structure be more useful? Suggestions?

I'm running a survey to see what you think.

Hi Janick,
It would be good expertise if there is a seperate thread for "Protocol related forum", a lot many people will throw up the idea concerned to it.

As we get udates for the thread for which we posted a reply or when we create a tag for a question to be formulated.. Similarly, can we get acknowledge notifications for newly posted query..??

Janick,

I have been a member of a forum group for many years. This forum is one of the ones I come to every work day. Once you break the forum into groups it also divides the over all group ... kinda. Some people will only go to one or two groups. They may miss some tread that they may be interested in. I do not believe the the traffic is so high that the forum needs to be divided into groups. If you were getting 100+ posts a day I would say yes there needs to be groups.

As for finding information, that is what the search facility is for. I use it before posting any questions because the answers are often there.

Sckoarn ;(
