I suggest that subforums be used for specific topics or a tag

I think we should just use stack overflow for that. A forum is
kinda chatty and not that great for searching anyway - even if
you find something, there might be fifty posts between question
and answer. The SO model tries to avoid that and I think we
might as well just use it.
Remember we can ask and answer our own questions on SO too, so
we could archive things there with that method.
Yes, I think the SO works, D forums comes up about half way.
Again, D forums may work right now but at some point they won't
assuming D takes off. The benefit of switching not, rather than
later is that it will make the later, sooner.
