Well, I doubt we're comparing the same things here, because considering 
goals, target users and complexity, we should look at apache.org, 
zope.org, plone.org none of which have a forum but only lists (and news 
via gmane).
I do tend to think that web forums attract a different kind of audience 
then mailing lists/newgroups. The last time I checked the non-official 
German forum, the quality of the content was vastly inferior to our 
lists. An there is probably a reason why Linux kernel developers do not 
communicate via a web forum...
