It's fine for archived messages but too hard to find new messages, say 
within the last 7 days. Staying current with MySQL is a lot harder with the 
mailing list because you have to keep up with the mail each day. A 
newsgroup is much better because you know the messages can be browsed 
whenever you want. It puts the messages in a tree and makes viewing 
pertinent threads a breeze, especially with an offline newsgroup reader 
like Agent. You see the complete thread without getting inundated with 
60-90 messages every day. The newgroup can still be archived to the public 
web archive.
