Mailing lists are pretty awesome. They're like a decentralized forum. There are even good web UIs!
That said, submitting and reviewing patches over email suuucks.
And they're easy to archive. Not super easy to parse, usually, but at least the data is there.
Wrestling to get email to properly bottom post is 99.999% of the battle. (Except the code review, is rather just pull it in locally)
