No, I would not put it like that. We just did not have the time and we
were told repeatedly -and this sounds quite ironic now- that if we were
to open forums all of a sudden it would be a lack of respect for the
forums. So now we find ourselves in an interesting situation, as not
being hostile to the forums (what would that mean?) and providing
mailing lists seems to mean that we don't respect forums.

I must admit I am a bit confused....

best,
Charles.
