I have a preference for mailing lists for several reasons. Also, my experience of organisations that implement both is that it fragments the userbase, which causes issues.

My vote; stick with the mailing list!

A few other people and I were talking about possibly starting an OpenNIC forum instead of using the mail list.

Some possible benefits:

- Being able to look back on conversations easily

- Being able to organize all domain proposals in an easy to browse way

- Much easier for people who are new to OpenNIC to look through 


Some possible caveats:

- We'll need active moderators to manage the forum

- Spam could be more of an issue

- We don't know how many people will switch over from the mailing list to use the forum instead.
What we think about this? Do most people want a forum, or are we just going to stay with the mailing list?
