I was thinking the same thing as Ayende; I find mailing lists very
convenient.

I am still not sure exactly how it would help us. You mentioned it works
better than a mailing list for QA topics, however it does seem to overlap
with the job of an issue tracker while being unstructured (and without issue
numbers) which would seem to make things worse for us to track defects. I am
not sure that having UV, the mailing lists and our issue tracker separate
makes things harder than they should be.

One obvious bug that was annoying, is that heaps of the topics I clicked on
tells me "This topic is awaiting moderation" rather than not showing the
topic at all.
