I think the LDC forum has its purpose, and I do not want it
gone! Traffic is low, but that's just fine.
Not everybody is on Gitter, and Gitter is only used for quick
non-semi-permanent discussion.
Without the forum, you would have to create a Github issue to
discuss something even if it is not really an issue that needs
resolving, only members of the LDC github group would see it,
etc.
The idea is to merge ldc threads into Core. You could use a
[LDC] label in the topic to differentiate ldc-specific posts, and
since there's not much traffic in the dedicated ldc forum, it
wouldn't add too much to Core. It might even give ldc greater
visibility by the core team.
I think gdc should do the same, but they have some automated bot
that cross-posts comments from their bugzilla, so they may want
to keep their own forum if they want to keep doing that.
