Right, premature it is. On the topic of migrations, I'd prefer to either
stay with mailing lists, or migrate all of them instead of potentially
fragmenting project forums. For docs, I think it is especially useful to
use the same forum as the Translation Project, so I wouldn't migrate
without them migrating too.
