This is what Doron said about it:
The thing is, it creates duplication. So people wither use both the list and the forum, or randomly selects one. Then you get people trying to cross-reference the lists and the forums... Now once we get into this state, it'll be impossible to monitor the various channels as I try to do today.
I think that forum for this purpose is much friendly. +1 for a forum instead of the users list. +1 - not sure it should replace the mailing list.
Typically: Users prefer to ask questions and browser on a forum, look through old answers, etc. Developers tend to work on mailing lists, asking a developer to go looking for questions to answer in a forum won't work.
Forum sounds great only if we can get it bridged to a mailing list
indeed. I know i wouldn't be reviewing a forum, or able to reply to it if it requires online access, and not consumable via the mail client.
so +1 to a forum, iff the mailing list remains viable.
Same goes for me. I'm much more likely to see issues if they're on a mailing list rather than a forum. I think moving to forums can only happen if we have a mailing list plugin as well. Mike
