*) Closed the developer forum, which wasn't used anyway.

*) Added comments to the other two forums which should lead people
to the mailing lists instead.

*) Added the mailing list address to the "always mail to" box for
the two forums, so I _think_ any postings to the forums will now go
to the mailing lists.  Then again, this probably requires a mailing
lists subscription and I don't have the authority to manually add
whatever address it would get sent from, so perhaps the messages
won't arrive.
