I must say, I think it is a bad idea to have two places doing the same job. 

The danger is that some people in one place will want to do things one way, and other people in the other place will want to do things another way, and they won't talk to each other enough to resolve their differences. The consequences will range from diluting the community, perhaps even to branching Csound again.

Since I very much do see the advantage of having one portal for Csound, I propose that the Csound5 Forum at csounds.com simply point to the existing csound-devel list, or vice versa.

Regards,
Mike

What is the relationship between this forum and the Developers' list?
