I know there are people who (for some reason) prefer mailing lists to actual forums, but I'd like to cast my vote for a proper forum.
Nabble works surprisingly well, but it's still pretty painful compared to any forum I've used.
when people call for forums, on mailing lists, I wonder why they don't just set one up and invite people to join.
I detest forums - whenever I go looking for information in Google I usually end up finding my exact same question asked on a forum somewhere, *but* very rarely answered.
every mailing list I'm on provides instant answers to my questions.
Who has time to trawl through forums?
