*I* suggest moving to forums as *I* think it's better way to exchange
the info
than those 90-tish, Mailman powered, mailing lists where you can't even
search for posts or whatever.
And apparently I'm not the only one that pretends that:
Ardour has a forum: http://ardour.org/forum/15
Rosegarden has a forum: http://www.nabble.com/RoseGarden-f2887.html
Hydrogen has a forum : http://www.hydrogen-music.org/forum/
etc. etc. etc.
WFT?! even glibc has a forum !!

The idea I had in mind when talking about linux audio forums:
http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/
Ardour is a bad example : most of the serious technical stuff is
either discussed on IRC or in a bug report on the tracker (which leads
to more tailking on IRC...)
More to the point: The forums are application-specific, not general in
nature. The LA* mail-lists are general, non-specific wrt applications
discussed.
I'm a member of a few forums that are successful, but I don't think a
forum is the best comm channel for general discussion of Linux audio
software use and development. IMO the mail lists function nicely now.
Best,
