To make this short, this is more or less a FAQ that comes up every now
and then.
The former threads can be summarized along this line:
- It's intentional
- The mailling-list model works just fine
- It would only serve to fragment the people.
- Some people just don't like forums
And there are enough forums in existence already, no need for YAF.

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated,
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
