I am using Ruby Forum vs. the Forum.

I myself wouldn’t mind to see it continue here, given that the only way
I see the discussions is in this forum anyway.

You can download mbox archives for offline viewing, and Librelist
also hosts their own archives (detailed below).

The only way to contribute is via email, though it’s easy to
subscribe/unsubscribe.

The thing is: “yet another mailing list”; though I’m quote interested, I
can’t bother yet with another subscription, especially when it (IMHO)
perfectly matches into the ruby-talk list.

I never felt it completely appropriate for ruby-talk given many non-Unix
people here and people with no interest in systems programming.

Opt-in is the less-offensive option. I’m subscribed to many lists and
often have several mailing lists filtered into one inbox for
ease-of-reading
