Honestly this sounds like walking the way to hell for me. Remember the days
when mailing-lists "were" newsgroups? newsgroups were trivial to host and did
produce only the amount of traffic that people really interested in the
corresponding group needed. Then suddenly everything had to be a mailing-list,
traffic was wasted, administration is sh*tty because people tend to not
unsubscribe so you get lots of dead emails in almost every list. But that is
not worse enough, now we have to go to web-based forums that combine just
every thinkable disadvantage.
Hey, let's use twitter like some android guys do ....  :-((
