Honestly those options suck.
The mailing lists etc are fine, but they are kind of old school, people
coming from other databases
expect a web based forum plain and simple.  To attract more users the
forums are a GREAT idea.

Stop this ridiculous complaining about interface fracture etc .

I can tell you for SURE that many people who are not OLD SCHOOL hate
mailing lists,  A web based forum
gives everyday users more of a chance of interacting with the community.

It would be a good idea to stop the bickering and just implement the forums.

Sorry if people don't like my honest answer :-)
