As far as I could follow when it was set up, people were more keen on the idea to get usefull threads up there (was on tomcat-dev afaik, but Pier should probably remember it better), so they wouldn't be lost in the somethimes enormous mails on the mailinglist and prevent most commons questions from being asked over and over again.
I think that it could be usefull for that purpose anyway. Btw love mailinglists and don't do forums much.
