Flaw in your logic: One has to "post" to the wiki to follow it. I'm very
sure you
can follow a wiki and never post to it. So, your stats conclusions are on
shaky
ground.

I think the idea is to get info out, in an easy to maintain way to as many
people
as possible.
I despise forums. Some products require you to use them, so I have to. There
are others that
feel this same way.
Some despise mailing lists. C'est la vie.
I think the best thing would be to work on a way in which both groups could
be
happy. A gateway between the mailing list and a forum might be the best of
both
worlds. Then again, maybe not. But it's something that we should be talking
about,
rather then having a religious debate about forum vs. list.
Comments?
