AFAIK, there are no "official" forums for PHP. Considering the fact that
PHP is a web development tool, such distaste for message boards is
ironic at the least. So why exactly there aren't any forums on php.net?
I've monitored this list long enough to predict the most probable
replies to this message. To save everybody some time, I will ansver them
here, without waiting someone to key them in.
Reply: There are forums on zend.com.
My Reply: zend.com != php.com.
R: There is a web interface for this mailing list.
MR: You cant' post new messages there, and it's just another way of
showing emails anyway.
R: There is a newsgroup interface.
MR: Yeah, I'm using it right now. But it requires special software, and
is terribly slow, unless you have very good connection and moderately
powerful PC.
R: Forums suck, mailing lists rule.
MR: Not if you don't like receiving 200 messages + spam every day.
R: Synchronizing mail lists and forums is very difficult and nobody will
do it.
MR: There is no need to synchronize anything.
