Amusingly, the first reply to that is someone trying to set up an email gateway 
to the forum because they like their current workflow...

It's certainly worth considering a forum rather than e-mail if there's real evidence of 
advantages, though. The challenge then would be to figure out what to use - let's not 
pick something trendy and list "features" like infinite scroll and markdown, 
but actually think about what benefits of the ML we want to preserve, and what we want to 
fix.

So, for starters, we need something with a low barrier to entry, easy to keep 
track of what's new, with good search support, a decent threading and 
sub-threading system... I'm sure we could come up with a shopping list and 
evaluate systems against it.

Regards,


Hmm... there's also this: <https://github.com/arkanis/nntp-forum>. Not sure how much cleanup it would need or what it even looks like. A forum interface to the NNTP server. That would make everyone happy... except for the people who want to avoid dual interfaces (I think I've heard this before...)
