Even if there isn't, it wouldn't be hard to 'inject' the mail list posts
into the database for the forums, just use the subject as the topic,
give it it's own subforum.
Going the other way could be a bit harder.

That's funny because the thought about having "two places to search"
occurred to me a couple of days ago when I read the following two
posts:
http://lists.caosity.org/pipermail/centos/2005-January/001496.html
http://lists.caosity.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2005-January/000574.html
I am new to Centos so correct me if I'm wrong but I'm assuming that
developers and end users were initially corresponding with each other
via mailing lists. In my opinion, redirecting some future discussions
to the web forums while leaving others on the mailing lists seems
counter productive.
I'm not familiar with the CMS software that is being used at centos.org
but is there any mailing list <-> web forum software available for it?
