I use the forums extensively, More than the mailing list, in fact... as do many others. The only problem with the forums is that there's a reasonable amount of white noise there. Lot's of basic questions, and actually getting an informed reply on a more complex topic is sometimes hit an miss.
(For example, I was trying the other day to find out how to inject things into the class prototype of view so I could add stuff to the base functionality of dynamically allocated classes without having to modify all the components, the answer I got was <class name="x" extends="view">, glad someone was at least trying to help, but not quite what I was after..... :) My heuristic for posting seems to be to search in the forums first, post in the forums second, and if I get no answers there (or don't figure it out myself by then, which I normally have) then I'd post here as that's where it seems the Laszlo guys hang out. (Note: There does seem to be a big difference between how much the more experienced and core Laszlo developers post on the mailing list as opposed to checking the forums, maybe I'm wrong, but if not then it would probably be good PR to have a look at the forums a little more often as it sometimes seems as though the more experienced developers have abandoned it as a ghost town. ;) Anyway, my 2c worth.
