Since some people do not like forums, others don't care for email and of 
course some like irc. It would be difficult to come up with one medium 
to encompass the needs of everybody.

I prefer email while the official place is the forum. So here is the forum.

It is good that the Ubuntu forums are helpful to you for issues. I have 
not hit many on my searches personally. Gentoo hits do come up 
frequently though for certain issues and their help is on track mostly.

So diversity will keep on growing. It would be great for the Fedora 
lists to be easily searchable from home base though.
