People have to register to a forum, too.

No, I do not think so.

- keep this mailing list and create a forum (if there are some
volunteers who want to administrate it)

Although mailing lists are very old and famous there are still some
people who do not know how to use a mailing list or even what it is.
Those people will find some help in a forum.

For all other users the mailing list should be enough because no
important feature is missing.
