Matthew, It hasn't been THAT quiet here and I have not heard suggestions this group is going away.
I did look at the online forum and at first was annoyed as I do not want to periodically log into various websites and prefer things to be consolidated in my email. But, it seems you can turn on email to selectively send things so it is also a mailing list. I am guessing one difference may be that it is not gatewayed to old newsgroups that periodically bring in folks who have disrupted. Another may be the level of moderation of messages that may help keep it more civil or even on-topic. I do wonder if the people at python.org want multiple forums. There is also one that sort of tutors people that obviously has an overlapping but different audience.
