<p>No doubt that each medium has its pluses and minuses, and I do
like email+mail lists in general. But when you have a lot of
content, you want to openly show what's going on and want to bring
more people in, for some projects mail lists alone are probably
too obscure and thus less helpful. The ability to show not only
communication between users and developers, but also other items
in a single front page, like related conferences, projects,
research, products, services, etc., can be quite nice. And the
fact that Discourse has been successfully tested + deployed by a
number of comparable projects is also a plus. Just saying! ;0)<br>

<div>I've been pushing this. Instead of having a custom built
forum like erlangcentral used to have, just use discourse like
every other language :). I also thought about setting it up
myself and trying to get it adopted that way, but geez does it
have a lot of moving parts.... But not going to divert this into
a rant about Ruby on Rails projects...<br>

<div>Anyway, I don't see it as a replacement for the mailing list,
but a complement.<br>
