I noticed that the bbPress development list has been inactive (according to the archives at least). Maybe it’s just not needed. I feel like mailman is just an extra piece of the puzzle that would-be developers have to manage. I’d prefer to see a core development forum here with somewhat restricted access, where you can subscribe to all updates at that forum.

You would effectively be subscribing to Gautam talking to himself mate.

With the odd comment from myself/ashfame etc.

Thanks. Sorry for the late reply–I really miss being able to subscribe to a forum.

Not being an apologist for the lack of “subscribe to topic” here, but you can always create your own RSS to email subscriptions with either Feedblitz or Feedburner.

There is an RSS feed for this forum:

https://bbpress.org/forums/rss/forum/requests-and-feedback

Or this topic:

https://bbpress.org/forums/rss/topic/replace-the-mailing-list-with-a-forum

And there are additional RSS feeds throughout (recent topics and recent posts.) If you really want the information pushed to you, so you don’t have to check back, there are ways to make it happen.

Of course, subscribe to topic is in trunk now, but seems to be missing from this bbpress.org theme (in my view anyway, and possibly yours as well.)
