Oh dear...
Please note that Linuxaudio.org offer does *not* suggest moving to forums.
Again, let me repeat, it does *not* suggest moving to forums.
It suggests moving the existing mailing lists LAD/LAU/LAA, so that they are
hosted under Linuxaudio.org. They would still remain the same lists with
same subscribers and same features. The only difference is that we would
have them under the Linuxaudio.org umbrella. Namely, we would have
linux-audio-dev(a)linuxaudio.org etc., instead of
linux-audio-dev(a)music.columbia.edu. But also, more importantly, these as
well as any other relevant lists that end-up being consolidated, would be
found under *one* *single* URL: lists.linuxaudio.org. And that, in and of
itself in my book (and I am sure in a book of any newcomer to Linux audio)
would be truly priceless.
Best wishes,
Ico

I didn't pretend that Linuxaudio.org suggest moving to forums. Read my post.
*I* suggest moving to forums as *I* think it's better way to exchange the info
than those 90-tish, Mailman powered, mailing lists where you can't even
search for posts or whatever.
And apparently I'm not the only one that pretends that:
Ardour has a forum: http://ardour.org/forum/15
Rosegarden has a forum: http://www.nabble.com/RoseGarden-f2887.html
Hydrogen has a forum : http://www.hydrogen-music.org/forum/
etc. etc. etc.
WFT?! even glibc has a forum !!

The idea I had in mind when talking about linux audio forums:
http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/
Predrag Viceic
http://freecycle.redsteamrecords.com
And no, Freecycle does not have a forum because Savanah doesn't provide such
tool.

i don't see why we need to "move" to forums. mailing lists and forums
have a different target audience and purpose.
however i strongly support a linux audio related forum - especially for
people new to the subject or searching for help (right now they turn up
on irc in order to make fools out of themselves), an aggregation of
knowledge in form of organizable threads that can be browsed wouldn't be
such a terrible idea.
"we need one because others have one" is a stupid argument. there are
far better arguments for a forum.
i think all that is needed is someone with some (security related)
experience with forums and enough time to set it up and moderate - i am
convinced ico or whoever is responsible for la.org will happily provide
resources for such an experiment.
