I do agree with Patrick on this one. My main issue with mailing lists is that you get all the threads regardless (hence the spam comment) and that the user interfaces of the archive viewers is nowhere near as good as say the one used on the Spring forum. The question was asked by the developers about a forum, so they muyst be pondering it too. I do think you would get a lot more activity if there was a forum, which is at the end of the day what we want.
