Hi,
IMHO, a forum is much too inefficient for such a large list. I'd much rather use the newsgroup.
The list is, in many ways, an agglomerate of users; i.e., one can see the "large list" as a number of smaller lists combined. I say this because much of the traffic is generated by questions about one package or another, and not necessarily of wide or general interest. A forum or similar application would allow packages to have their "own" mailing lists (kind of) without having to "pollute" the general development list. Again, just an idea. -- Paul M.
