The apache list seems to work… Why change? It's easy to search via Markmail… 
Maybe someone should place a link for searching the archives with it somewhere?

Additionally, you do realize that Google groups basically requires (or creates) 
a G+ account nowadays right? Not sure what the benefit other than building a 
more 'social couchdb forum' on G+ would be. IMHO the Google Groups wouldn't be 
any different than the apache list - other than you'd be fragmenting the user 
base. Google Groups is also somewhat painful to search - they can be indexed w/ 
Markmail too.

BTW… if you are participating on this list… you ARE doing social… just not the 
FB, G+, Twitter way… but the old skool email way. Sorry to disappoint.
