Re: [Springframework-developer] Consolidation of sf forums and user mailing list

[Andy D. <an...@ma...>]

+1 to consolidate into decent forums.  One of my pet peeves is that so many 
projects maintain both a mailing list and a forum for the same thing.  This 
means I have to search two places in order to find an answer to a question.  
And, if I can't find that answer, I have to decide which place to ask (do I 
ask in the mail list or the forum or both?).  If the mail list seems to be 
the better place (because it is more active), then I have to subscribe to 
that list.  One (nice and easy to use) forum to rule them all, I say.  And I 
agree, the current forums are difficult to use (for all the reasons you 
state).
