Agreed, forums are a much better solution to discussions and as other 
suggested, having more sources is a source of confusion :)
So, no need for e-mailing list anymore.

Then I don't see the point of the forum. There will be 
StackOverflow.com<http://StackOverflow.com>, the forum and Xamarin support. 
Three sources of diverting answers, three sources to consider.
I would shut down the mailing list. If you have the forum and turn email 
notifications on, it will be a perfect replacement.

I hope this is not, I really enjoy opening my inbox everyday and see tons and 
tons of useful information I do archive them into categories folders :)

So the mailing list is (finally) dead?

Greetings, Developers!

Today we are announcing the launch of the Xamarin Forums: 
http://forums.xamarin.com<http://forums.xamarin.com/>

You can use the new forums to give us feedback, demo your projects, share cool 
tips and tricks, talk about the latest announcements, and discuss other 
relevant technical and community topics. Think of it as a perpetual meetup in 
the cloud, a place where you can kick back and rock out with other members of 
the Xamarin community. The mailing lists will continue to operate in parallel 
with the forum for the foreseeable future, but we aren't going to promote 
Nabble anymore or attempt to integrate the lists into the new forums.

We're using the excellent forum system from the folks at Vanilla Forums. It 
offers some great features, including in-site and email-based notifications of 
new posts and threads, a global activity feed, a badge system (à la 
Foursquare), and support for real-time private messaging. It's cooler than a 
barrel of code monkeys, and we're inviting you all to join today. You can sign 
in with your Xamarin account - the same one that you use on the Xamarin store. 
If you don't have an account yet, you can register one here: 
https://auth.xamarin.com/account/register

After you join the party, be sure to check out Nat's forum kickoff thread: 
http://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/12/xamarin-forums-kickoff

You can also tell us a bit about yourself in the introductions thread: 
http://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/13/introduce-yourself<http://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/13/introduce-yourself)>

Feel free to start your own thread in any relevant section. We're looking 
forward to seeing some great conversations. We also plan to use the forum as a 
way to facilitate discussion on the topics we raise on our blog. You'll soon 
start to see forum discussion thread links in many of our blog posts, much like 
the link below. We welcome any suggestions that you have for improving the 
forums and making them a more effective communication tool for our community.

Thanks!
