Anders,
Good grief no. Web forums are horrible in comparison to a mailing list. Much worse search capabilities, you have to sit and hit 'refresh' to see if there are any replies, no decent way of filtering and just generally 'no thanks'
Not worse than *this* mailing list.
Somewhere there must be some combined Web-forum-and-mail-list tool. I'd kinda prefer a forum, just becuase the traffic on this list is so high. I think a lot of AOL or yahoo account people are kept off this list becuase of the traffic volume.
If volume is the concern then all that is required is for someone to take the initiative and register the list at gname.org This presupposes however that participants are familiar with a news reader application. regards /ch
