Joseph, Thanks for the offer and I can clearly see there is a very robust set of positions regarding Forums usage. I know we had this conversation before and felt at the time the Maillist suited the assemblage of current Ubuntu UK Team members. However in the strictest sense of any community project there is absolutely nothing stopping you or anyone simply creating the forums and letting people know they are avialable to use. I realise that people dont want to split the community but the community is at its best when it self organises and to that end opportunities cannot really be defined or restricted by technical demerits or specifications. So nothing stops the forums being created and we can add them to the Wiki so people know they are there. If they are succesful im sure they will thrive and I am sure it will widen to audience of potential UK Members. It will be a shame though that as a result of this that some efforts may become duplicated and some communication will be missed.
My personal preferences are to use the Mailing list, however if a Forum exists I will make sure I drop in and keep an eye on it and let people know about the mailing list and the archvies and the thriving communication we have here as well as the IRC Channels. Can I assume this has been the consensus of the group ? And So say all of us ?[1] [1] Loving the current Battlestar Galactica. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
