> Subject: [jdf-dev] User forums: should we dump them?<br>
><br>
> One idea I was throwing around last week was whether we should get<br>
> rid of user forums totally. Here's why:<br>
><br>
> 1) No one is using the user forum, everyone is using the disqus<br>
> comments<br>
> 2) If you think about what goes into a user forum, it's:<br>
> * questions<br>
> * bug reports<br>
> * announcements<br>
> * misc other stuff<br>
><br>
> If we dig into (2), I think it's fair to say that questions would be<br>
> better addressed by a stackoverflow Q&A approach, bug reports should<br>
> go in the bug tracker anyway, announcements should go in the news,<br>
> or on twitter or blogs, and that I can't come up with any good<br>
> examples of what other stuff there is (and in all honesty, twitter<br>
> probably can cope with the rest of it).<br>
><br>
> It's also worth nothing that we can embed a Q&A system nicely into<br>
> pages (e.g. people can ask questions on a specific page) probably,<br>
> which I think will be a popular way to interact, especially if we<br>
> integrate it well with comments.<br>
><br>
> This isn't something we can do right now (we need to look at good<br>
> ways to do it) but I wanted to throw the idea out, and see if any<br>
> ardent forum fans come out of the woodwork...<br>
