I *think* that the originator of that idea withdrew and cancelled it,
after it was pointed out to him that:
1) Whilst he could create a forum, there was no compulsion upon those
who provide real valuable answers on the mailing list to bother to
read the forum, let alone provide answers.
2) That there was already an archive of past postings to the list
(and indeed that the necessary pointers to this are in the headers of
every post to the mailing list).
Forums? We don't need no steeenking forums.

work around, in a way that produces unintended consequences that are
worse than the original problem. Usage: "Windows ME fixes many of the
shortcomings of Windows 98 SE".
