I think that this way of communicating would have a greater impact on the users, of course leaving always the space for the nice and useful mailing list that the Debian project has.Forums considered harmful. The web is not designed for efficient flow of a two-way conversation, and trying to make it do that invariably reduces functionality and limits users in ways that newsgroups and mailing lists do not. Try filtering a thread on a forum (oh, wait...you can't!).
The mailing lists are also archived in a much nicer and easier to search form. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr
