7.1 Working with Discussion Folders
Use discussions as a way of obtaining comments and feedback to questions and thoughts that you might have. You can start general discussion threads in the Discussion folder in your personal workspace. For discussion threads that are more specific to a project or team, start the discussion thread in the Discussion folder of the appropriate workspace.
Starting a discussion thread is often more effective than sending individual users an email, because other interested parties and knowledge holders can easily join the discussion, without waiting for the email to be forwarded partway through the discussion.
By default, the Discussion folder is sorted with the most recent discussions appearing first in the list of discussion entries.
