Because I'm interested in the content, but not enough knowledge to

I understand the desire to keep it focused but it would seem very
unfortunate not to have it at least read-only mirrored on the forum.
That would set a direction for the future that the discussion will
happen out of sight. I would love to see the contents of the discussion
but have nothing to contribute to such a degree that I'm certainly not
signing up for the mailing group.
There is the risk that two parallel discussions develop - the mailing
list and the bleachers. Then folks on the mailing list start replying to
the list etc. etc.
What I do want to do is keep the discussion focused and that cannot
happen in the chaotic, ever-meandering forum environment.
