I like the local archiving of posts using a mailing list and agree the forum format is only as reliable as the server, but then again, so is the mailing list... I like the overall view of the different topics.. for me, mailing list posts are a bit of a quandary, is scenery development a user or developers topic... the forum format makes it very easy to choose ... yes I like it!
