http://arianne.zopesite.com that is a prototype for our new arianne.cx site.
We will place most of the information about all topics on the website.

Also there are two sites more ( at least that I know ), one by Dante and the 
other by Olivier.

Yes, I really prefer Mailing list or IRC to all the other alternatives.
Sourceforge provides a forum that even if it is not great, it is good enough for 
what it have been used.

Forums has the disvantage of being harder to monitor and to have to be online to 
read/write on them. Also forums usually contain more "not-so-useful" posts.

For website we are using Midgard it automate all the process in a similar way to 
what Zope does. So we need little help on that area. 
I will love help in filling the website with content and in fixing the grammar 
and spell errors.

About graphics, Djagg & Olivier are doing a great work.

We have no private forums on Arianne and we have no private mailing lists on 
Arianne. What you see is what you get!
