This list has a history that goes back to July of 2005 (see http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/about) and is searchable via the "Search this group" button on every page of the web interface. While at times that search didn't seem to work very well, it's been consistently working for at least a year now. Plain old Google search will find a lot of stuff that has been discussed on this list also. Sorry, but I don't see how changing to a "forum" instead of this list would be any better in the history-keeping line or reduce the number of questions. People who care to do research on their questions before posting here can already do so.
