I think some of the clever developer types are being a little disingenuous here.
I don't remember to check the forums every N days because I am lazy. I subscribe to a feed of updates. If I can answer a question, I will attempt to do so. You're seriously not telling me there isn't software out there to generate forums -> RSS feed -> email. Better just to say - I'm not interested in forums with questions from new Habari users but will read -dev.
