Use common sense :) Noone is forcing anyone here to use the forums on the wugportal.com - yes, there's a forum there, but the principal idea for that was to provide space for discussions related to the website (feature requests, help for using the site, etc.). In case visitors of the site want to use it for other purposes (I opened those forums per user request) - so be it, I don't think it'll cause any serious problem. This mailing list is the definite base of WUG-related discussions. The wugportal.com site is intended to be a repository of scripts, customization samples, etc. - while I'd also like to see it as a repository for final results of solutions discussed on this mailing list (at the Topics section, where I've already posted articles about issues which've been brought up on the mailing list several times). It just makes easier to find solutions which've been discussed on this list, that's it.
