I prefer the editing abilities a forum gives over everything else.<br>
For example QtProject forum <a href="http://qt-project.org" target="_blank">http://qt-project.org</a> has done it really well. They have the possibility to extend the documentation by leaving notes and code examples. Also a whole section to provide snippets.<br>
<br>
The thing which I dislike in mailing lists that sometimes for solving a simple issue I need to read the whole chain of emails to catch the one which has the correct and working solution. In the forum it's possible to modify the original question to include the correct answer or even save a separate code snippet in the wiki, which is easy to find if tagged properly.<br>

Hi Thomas<br>
<br>
Thanks for your input.<br>
<br>
I suspect the whole "mailing-list vs forum" thing will be a matter of taste and experience. Both have their plus sides and downsides.<br>
<br>
I am now trying out Thunderbird, but will hold of commenting until I have got used to it.<br>

I'm not sure if you are serious.<br>
Did you hear about this thing called … email?<br>

I counter with "have you heard of this thing called privacy?" In some forums your email is suppresed by default. Other users only see your avatar, and thus pms are used for "back-channel" talk instead of email. In a small intimate community like this one, privacy (or invasion thereof) should not be a problem, but that might change if the community were to mushroom in size.<br>
