Well, as a new mailing list, instead use this, see how it goes and as a pilot experiment for Discuss…, before the mailing list gets too popular
OR
try out the mailing capabilities of Discourse by plugging the mailing list into discuss and having the best of both worlds (or at least see if we can have the best of both worlds, check the tradeoffs and pain points).

I agree, because having a web interface would be brilliant. However, that’s solely if directly replying to the notification e-mail messages is possible. (Them being sent from a noreply= address couldn’t constitute a mailing list.)
