Thats quite a good idea - and something that we explored at length when looking for a replacement software for the existing forums. And while that would be nice to have, reduce content duplication and assert some level of authority across venues etc, its still not really the master-solution. The bridge would be good to have, but there are lots of people who chose a venue to work with based on their own expectations, comfort level and media they prefer working with. In some cases, like the people here on the list - mailing lists are the way to go. Others prefer to use the forums. While plenty hang out on IRC. Lets not take the choice away from people. - KB
