There's also the possibility that a public discussion area would allow us to address the public's fears, one topic at a time.  That, in and of itself, could provide valuable PR assistance.  In a world where FUD can shut down a project, or change a company's policies and attitudes toward third party projects, PR management can be quite important.

I don't see the benefit of having a public discussion area for libsl,

there's already the cesspool of forums.secondlife.com. If you are

talking about the merits of forums vs. mailing lists that's a different

topic, but for the core developers a mailing list is important so bugs

and patches get pushed in to my inbox instead of me having to go out on

the web and find them. On the other hand I don't think there's a lot of

danger in trying it out; at worst we get some discussions fractured

between the mailing list and the forums and at best we get some good

humor value out of the public discussion area.
