For convenience, let me narrow down the scope of realistic outcomes of
this debate: The mailing list isn't going any where.

But as you can see from the url, http://www.ruby-forum.com, the
web-based gateway is just a service offered by Andreas. It's not
necessarily _the_ service. If you think you can setup something that's
better, then more power to you. I believe
http://www.better-ruby-forum.com is available.

I for one appreciate Andreas' work. The value of doing dwarfs the
value of complaining by at least 1539%. So please do convert the time
of complaints, especially when worded in an offensive manner, into
time for improvement. You'll feel much better afterwards. Kinda like
actually going to the gym beats watching people running on TV.
