I understand that many people are used to use forums. However, I personally
do not like them. Is it possible in forum to see all unread or marked
messages ? But the most uncomfortable forum thing for me is the forum/browser
editor to post messages. I'm used to edit in vim.

I think that cross-posting will be the best solution.
