Sorry for those who get this message twice, but since the topic has been
opened on both audissay and developers mailing-list, I decided to
forward my opinion on both lists too.
Hello,
I personnally prefer forums over mailing-lists, if the forum web pages
are made accessible.
For me, advantages of forums over mailing-lists are :
1 - Discussions are sorted into distinct topicc, it's easier to read or
follow a complete discussion, or go back to what a particular person
said a few
time ago in a given topic.
2 - If you aren't interested in a specific topic, just ignore it. In a
mailing list you have to delete all messages having the subject line you
don't want.
3 - I often find that mailing-lists are more spammy than forums. You
don't want to discuss, just don't go on the forum website. With
mailing-lists you
anyway see all these messages, because you anyway open your mail client
to get important messages (work, school, etc.)
If you can, use one which is accessible and alow quick response (write
your response on the same page as the messages without the need to open
a special
edition page)
The one which is on audiogames.net is a good forum for example.
