Did you just volunteer to maintain a phpBB ?

Besides, what is wrong with mailing lists ? Email is fast, simple,
requires little space, allows people to read stuff on the move while
commuting and working, is readable easily on small display portable
devices. And most important, uses very little bandwidth, because it has
no useless images, tags or other stuff that is bloated.


Just to clarify, this is not a flame, just arguments why mailing lists
are more useful that forums.

Tristan
