Changing the domain is, and has been under consideration. Remember, the forum is basically just a Q and A session relating to desktop/workstation users' problems, primarily. This is the official channel for announcements and what-not, so i don't see that _any_ community splitting is going on whatsoever. Expansion, yes. Problems could be duplicated, yes...but I think if I started forwarding forum posts here, there would be quite a stir over it. Clint: Life has no guarantees; especially in the linux community :)
