We see two options at this time:
  1. hosting forums at forum.mageia.org (or st like that) and
delegating management, animation;
  2. delegating forums per locale/country/whatever and having
forum.mageia.org redirect to each.

For the record, a mix of these two approaches happened at Mandriva;
English and French main ones were hosted by the company and there were
others delegated for each languages;

I'd go for this one, The english forum.mageia.org being the reference
/ main place internationally and also for all anglophone people.

Localized forums either underneath forum.mageia.org or (via redirect)
on their local websites, thus using already existing communities like
BlogDrake, MandrivaUser.de (which will change to mageia.de), and
others.

The goal should be to give everybody a central place "mageia.org" from
where he can go to "his" language but also stay at the central place,
This can also apply for wiki and other documentation, news, etc. as
long as the main contents is the same in all languages (plus local
news, etc.)

We should try to avoid having 2 different addresses for the same
language because this will lead to confusion.

I would second Wolfgang's suggestion too and add that some kind of close relationship be established with the localized forums so that any threads that may prove important to a localized group be passed on to the main english forum. This would ensure a reporting structure that would reflect the needs and wishes of all Mageia users.

Maybe this could be accomplished this way:

-- monthly report of localized thread headlines (translated to English) could be posted on the main forum for Mageia infrastructure people to read and comment.
