notifications that require that the developer login to the forum and see what's new don't scale.

having the forms gate to mailing lists so that the developer can see the messages and respond directly works _much_ better.

Announcing the release of Fedora 18 Alpha

I don't know whether it would scale for others or not. It scales for me, but then, the krita forums remember my login, and there are only some dozen posts a day, right now. And I don't feel compelled to answer every forum post that passed by on irc. But in general, irc and rss notifications work for me. A mailing list gateway would be even better, but I don't have that. Just visiting the forum to check what's new -- no, that wouldn't work at all.
