I like forums, which is why I access LAU through gmane, which lets me read it in my newsreader or over its web interface. With GMANE in place I think we can leave things the way they are to keep all the subtle advantages mailing lists have due to subtle benefits like compatibility with old and obscure hardware, etc, but what we could do is to emphasize that GMANE and especially its web interface is a good option and maybe put a small newbie tutorial on how to use GMANE on the linuxaudio.org or linuxsound.org pages.
