I was hoping that the forum would be able to manage itself, which it did
for the first few years of it's existence, but if volunteers can't
volunteer to help them we obviously going to continue going downhill on the
forum support side.

Sebastian, did you specifically contact Art Tevs?

As a wider issue, we keep bumping up against this moderator and management
issues with the forum, without Art being available.  I think we'll either
need somehow to take over from Art who is really active and will be active
over the a good number of years in the future, or move to a  different type
of forum that doesn't require the maintenance overhead.

The osg-users mailing list that I've managed for decade now is very low
maintenance, it just works.  We have occasional posts to the wrong address
and an rare bit of spam get through via a hijacked mail account, but mostly
it just ticks along by itself.  So if users need support without waiting
for the forum just subscribe to osg-users, it works.

Longer term I think we probably need to move on from out current
forum/mailing list arrangement.  I'm tempted by googlegroups for simplicity
of management.  Suggestions are welcome.

Robert.
