I agree. A forum would be more practical. It is much easier reading all postings on a topic. I find myself clearing my "tomcat users list inbox" every morning, while on forums I visit I check out the new or updated topics. The forums these days let you subscribe to topics or complete forums and send you a notification when a new topic gets started or updated.
