I think we should have just one communication platform. For sure mailinglists serve their purpose, but thinking about myself using this list it would be waaaaay more comfortable having a forum. And that's not just because I'm some kind of lazy person. It's mainly about, as mentioned before, having all the features a forum already provides. Besides, if the forum software available at the time when this list started had all the possibilities that we can have today, I'm pretty damn sure a forum would have been everybody's choice=).
But there's one major issue: any possibilities that posts from the mailinglist can be imported to a forum?

Have nice day,
Christian.

well both can serve the purpose, at times mailing lists are better and sometimes forums.
