I think it's time this was revisited.

Now that sipX as a whole has gained traction and started attracting users the 
mailing lists have started to, in my opinion, get out of hand. I open my mail 
client this morning and was greeted by 60 new sipx-users mailing list messages. 
That's right 60.

I could spend 20 minutes sifting through them all, ignoring bottom posters as 
usual, or I could just mark them all read and possibly miss out on a good post 
or an opportunity to help someone.

Or they could all be laid out in a nice easy to use forum format that allows 
everyone to easily glean relevant information in a uniform format. Let's face 
it: it's not very intuitive to create code blocks in an email client.

I would like some opinions from the crowd here. I think the mailing list has 
become difficult to use and it should be replaced by a forum. The current 
forum-mailing list integration is half ass (don't get me wrong, I appreciate 
the effort). It requires that members register for both the forum AND the 
mailing list and it doesn't allow for categorization of threads.

Let the discussion begin.
