Funny, I expect to ask questions at IRC and search archives. and I expect messages to be archived indefinitely, as a mailing list does (I've seen many forums that don't, unless you mark "sticky"...) Besides, the usabilty of those forums is very clunky compared to a decent email client. And if you want a webpage for these things? Use gmail. Now, if you like the subforums feature of forums, perhaps the conclusion would be that we need more mailing lists. Atm, I doubt that. What would be bad is to start a forum with the same scope next to an existing mailing list, so we would have two places to search for the same thing.
