hi Fergal,

thanks for your useful insights.

what I personally like about Discourse is that I can deal with it as a 
mailing-list while others use it as an on-line forum. Both means 
interoperate well for me.

basically two tools that have different paradigms of operation manage to 
work together very well, leaving me the freedom to use my e-mail client 
and others the ability to go to the www for a "more colorful" experience.

the ability to search archives is already there and is guaranteed, over 
time, by the fact that it is open source software that is managed and 
maintained in-house.
