[computer-go] Why not forums?

[Peter Drake]

I disagree. Having to post through a web interface is much less  
friendly than an email list. With my email program of choice, I can  
use the whole screen for editing, include attachments the same way I  
do in other email, save particularly interesting messages in another  
mailbox, etc.

Also, preventing Spam assaults on forums is an administrative  
nightmare, I'm told.
