[Greasemonkey] List timing

No, haven't noticed this.  But I have an associated question: why are we using a 
mailing list in the first place?  I'm not a big fan of mailing lists, and I 
paused *several seconds* before subscribing to this one.  In fact, I scoured the 
Net looking for a forum alternative.

I did come across a newsgroup, but couldn't get my news reader to work with that 
server.  :(  It turns out it was an authenticated server; and, although the 
id/pw were available publicly, you had to dig a little to find it.

So, how would you all feel if I set up a forum for all this back and forth?  We 
could set up a FAQ, and links and so forth.  But the big advantage would be an 
archive of all this greasemonkey knowledge.

So how about it?  If you come, I will build it.
