There might be unwanted consequences if this were to happen. The forum has evolved into a friendly first port of call for newcomers with problems and I think that some new users might find the mailing-list intimidating (I'm taking here about, say, a lad who might have installed QGIS yesterday and now finds that his GPS tracks won't fit properly on his map). At present we have the forum, which I think does a good job for newcomers; the mailing-list, which is pitched more towards those with greater experience; and we have the developer list, which is where the world-class experts live. I don't think this is a bad hierarchy.
