I'm surprised that no-one has suggested a Google Group. All the
advantages of a mailing list (with individual emails or digests) with
all the advantages of a forum (threaded conversations etc) And since
Bobby has already kindly set one up at:
http://groups.google.com/group/gzg-group

all that remains is for us all to join the group and start posting!

I would recommend that Matt Seidl be a group administrator though.
