Apple Developer Forums Can Now Monitor Threads
And now, it’s easier to find and keep track of content you’re interested in. Take advantage of enhanced search and a new feature that monitors threads for you and sends you an email each time there’s a reply.
The new forums remain pretty useless, except that they are the sole source of some incredibly valuable defacto documentation written by DTS engineer Quinn.

Quinn’s posts remind me of mmalc’s Cocoa Bindings sample code on his personal page, and his writeups on cocoa-dev. Super helpful, but sure would be nice to have IN THE FORMAL DOCUMENTATION.
Yes yes. I still have this in my favorites bar in Safari, can’t imagine relying solely on the reference pages.

WTH? You can’t post an image on Apple Developer Forums?
Apple is intentionally making it hard to communicate visually. And with external links being banned, there’s no workaround.

"a new feature that monitors threads for you and sends you an email each time there’s a reply."
They are getting closer and closer to re-inventing the mailing-list.
