This seems like an incredibly short-sighted decision.
Why not mirror the information so people can use the format they feel most
comfortable with?
What I propose is that a message posted to the forums would automatically be
sent to the newsgroup and vice versa.
Seems to me it could be done with a fairly simple php script or RB console
app.
I personally feel the RB forums lack the features I need to find the
information I'm looking for.

Subject: Important Information About Mailing Lists: PLEASE READ
We are finding that there is a lot of duplication occurring between
our Mailing Lists and our Forums. As a result, some people are
having difficulty finding answers to their questions since
information is stored in so many places. REAL Software has decided
to consolidate the NUG with the online Forums. On Monday, February
12, 2007, the NUG and other mailing lists will no longer be active.
We encourage you to continue your REALbasic and REAL SQL Server
discussions on the Forums.
If you are not presently a member of the forum, please sign up today
at http://forums.realsoftware.com! It’s free to join and there are
lots of topic areas for discussion, like Getting Started, Databases,
Games, etc. We also have platform-specific areas where you can ask
questions or start discussions relative to your platform.
We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. We understand
that some people prefer an email-based mailing list to an online
forum. However, we feel that consolidating our lists into the online
Forum is the best option for the community.
Thank you for your support.
