[PnP] For or against a 'forum' for P&P?

[Paul L. Ming]

Whoo-hoo! :)  I just spent a few minutes trying it all out with various
searching strings...and it works pretty damn well! :)

This will definitely help when I find myself thinking "I *know* I read
something about this that somebody had a solution for...hmmm...". :)

I still really like the idea of an official forum. Maybe both? Posts to the
ML get duplicated to the Forum? Or maybe the other way? Best of both worlds
then; for those of us who like forums, we could read/post there...for those
that use email, they can use email.

Paul and others,

I agree with most of the 'against' arguments, but there is one extremely 
valid point in favor of a forum: the search capabilities. I realised that 
we can use google for that and made a very quick hack to have a form search 
google only for entries on the pnp list. It seems to work 
(http://www.powersandperils.org/searchlist.htm).

Better form should follow when time permits.

PS: There are some additions to the site, but there is a lot more still in 
my Inbox that needs to be added to the site.
