Mailman 3 is already more flexibly w.r.t. archivers, in the sense that we define an interface between Mailman and generic archiver, and then implement a number of modules to support everything from Pipermail to mail-archive.com to MHonArc. We should take the same approach with forum integration.
Sure. My point is that forum and archivers are likely to step on each others' toes. Isn't that the case? I would think you want one or the other, but not both. Or am I just seeing bogies?
I don't know about bogies, but maybe overly festive elves? :)
I agree they overlap, but I think they're different media, and I think they serve different purposes. They have to work together, but they can coexist.
