On forums, all you see is the header for the discussion, and the number of 
messages attached to it. 

It makes it much more difficult to follow discussions, because you don't know 
if there are new messages or not, unless you memorized how many were there the 
last time you looked at it. And even then, you can't tell whether you even read 
them previously or not, which a mailing list will tell you, because the 
messages are marked.

How hard is it to subscribe, create a folder and a filter? If that is too 
involved, I don't see how they can get involved in postgres anyway.
