Because I am following 20+ other projects. With email distribution lists it all turns up in one place, with a single login and its something I can monitor daily. If its in a forum I would actively have to monitor that topic, search through all its various sub forums for posts I hadn't read etc. The user interface for email is significantly better for seeing new topics and responding quickly.

Can I ask why you prefer the mailing list over the forum?

2) If your iffy about a patch normally you would attach to a post to the
liquibase-dev list and then a committer can check and commit it or make
comments about getting it in shape if there are problems with it. Can
you attach in the forums? If so do that or you can attach the patch to
the bug/feature request in sourceforge and then let someone know it
exists in the forum.

agree on (1) - I'm happy to get emails, but I won't be using the forums
so if liquibase switches over fully I'll not be going with it.

A new topic, 'maillist vs. Forum and commits (and translation)', has
been made on a board you are watching.

You can see it at
http://liquibase.org/forum/index.php?topic=35.new#new

The text of the topic is shown below:

Hi,

i have two issues i want to discuss.

1) I strongly recommend to stick with the dev maillist for developer
issues. I dont know of a single OSS project which handles the dev
communication via Forum. Its so much slower than maillists and the
archiving issue is non-existant for devs normally. And if you need to
find something older, you still have an archive, just not as beautiful
as in a forum. But beauty is for users....

2) Is it ok that i can commit with my newly created JIRA account into
the 1.9 branch? I hope there is some quality check before you guys build
a new 1.9.x because i really dont want to break a release with my first
commit in case i ve missed something.

3) I can help out translating the wiki to german if you like. What do i
need in terms of accounts?

Marc
