It's a shame that a forum can't act as a front-end for a mailing list, so signing up to the forum actually signs you up to a mailing list (if you're not already signed up), but without receiving any emails.

It can. The glassfish forums are bidirectionally gatewayed to the mailing list in just such a manner, and it works astonishingly well. Before using those I would've been opposed to the idea, but now ... it doesn't seem so bad.
