I agree with Jonas, I'm a newbie to TextMate and I'm sure all the little issues I've had could have been easier to find a solution to with a forum rather than the mailinglist considering I've only been on here for ~2 months.
A little off topic but a good repository for tmbundles that shows compatability(ala. For Wordpress) would been nice too.

Agreed, tools are tools. I prefer something like a forum because it frees me from having to do the storing and indexing myself. This list hits my gmail account for that reason, and that reason only. I despise graphical mail clients with the same vigor you despise forums and prefer mutt for my daily work, but that means I don't have access to a proper search interface unless I set one up myself. So I leave the storing, indexing, and making searchable of the list to Google, and there's a bunch to store, index, and make searchable - I have been subscribed since inception, almost nine years now?.
Nothing about this particular setup makes it easy for newcomers to search and find solutions. It's not like TM *ahem* changed much in the past *ahem* months, so issues you and I might have dealt with in 2009 can be new for someone who just yesterday downloaded the trial. Now, trying to find THAT in the mailman interface (which is the linked resource off the website) is harsh. Wouldn't having a nice search option, linked right from the website, be better? Your dislike for forums aside, that is.
