Any idea is active if someone is making it. Want to make us a forum? :D My only worry with things such as this, is that community resources could make the project look a little dead and hopeless, if people keep using the mailing list primarily. One of the things I'd thought about was a forum-type-thing for all of _why's former projects, and like minded creatively fuelled gizmos and gadgets - it would help foster a better community of creative people doing cool stuff and helping each other out, as well as hopefully having enough scale to never seem inactive.
