"They (forums) are to publish discussions on specific matters."
Exactly! I'm often disappointed with the level of help offered here, and
maybe that's because the mailing list is too much a "community where
people try to stay connected continuously" and not enough a
question/answer type discussion.
I think there's a great need for a simple, searchable question/answer
'area' whether it's a forum or something different, where new users can
ask those 'dumb' questions (tapestry veterans may think their dumb)
where there's a good likelihood that they will be answered in full
instead of just falling down the list.
Especially with the design of tapestry is such that the internals are
not exposed to the developer (ie no polymophism) which makes it more
difficult for developers to get a grasp on what is available to them.
I've asked a number of questions here which I feel have never had a
conclusive answer, i'm sure i'm not the only one.
Not to say people aren't helpful, that's that what i think the problem
is. I think it's the mechanism (mailing list) more than anything else.

Stack Overflow must be a forum because it is a way to collect many
professionals of various competences. But forums are not for community
where people try to stay connected continuously.
They are to publish discussions on specific matters.

i know most of you guys, who have been using ml for so long probably prefer
ml, that's not the point!
i guarantee there's a number of users who don't want to configure their
inbox for ml and give up.
just a thought, if no one can see the benefit i guess it isn't going to
happen!
i use stackoverflow a lot and attempt to answer or contribute to most
tapestry questions.

I prefer ml to forums and in nay case ML web archives allow to search

I cannot see any other advantage of a forum over a ml.

how about adding a forum?
personally i prefer forums to mailing lists, and i believe a lot of
people don't participate in this 'user-group' community and therefore
don't get help and therefore don't like tapestry...
if you want to attract more users i recommend this.
