Please, NO!

Web forums leave me stuck with *your* choice of UI (all of which I find
clunky and unpleasent to varying degrees).  Email lets me read messages
with *my* choice of UI, whether that's my mail reader of choice, my phone
when I'm on the move, or webmail if that's what I'm stuck with.  Also,
there's no off-line archive of messages.

Personally, I wish everything that's a mailing list or a web forum today
was a newsgroup, but I think *that* ship has well and truly sailed :(

Cheers,
Tim.
