Ugh, I hope not. Web forums are a monumental timewaster, and become
totally impractical if you're hoping to stay abreast of events on many
different things. I'm on about a dozen different mailing lists, I
couldn't manage that, at all, if they were web forums.
If anyone was considering a change, it should be to usenet. It's the
ideal mechanism for mass messages. You've got a plethora of on-line and
off-line clients with filtering features that just isn't doable with a
web forum. Not to mention that, with usenet, there's no need to expose
an e-mail address to subject you to spam.
