The goal is communication, not rightness. How is communication best served?


duh, use both mailing lists and forums. any new forum post -> new post to the list. and vice versa.

my vote, if we can't get that working, is to do both, even if we can't keep them in sync. those who want to use the list will use the list, and those on the forum can do that too .. its not a bad thing to have two camps to sit in.

mailing lists always seem to tend to have a much faster mean response time between participants than forums do, and this is precisely why forums are often preferred, for their general 'lagginess' which doesn't require attention the user isn't willing to spend unless its on their own schedule.. both means of communication are valid for different reasons.
