"New people"? You're joking, aren't you? Some of them are moderators for even a longer time than you are a Gentoo Dev. The problem just is, that the Forums have been forgotten at the time when our current (or even better now it's the old) metastructure was built up. The forum moderators now just take Gentoo's official way to add the forums and the folks behind it as a usual TLP or SLP (probably to PR). And I'm really ashamed that many Developers think they are just some beggars for an @gentoo.org- and shell-account. Did you really ever honoured their work? Think about the Forums will go down for a week. I don't want to count the questions a lot of developers will receive, which were usually answered in the forums instead. Or political discussions about Gentoo, which are hold in the forums and where the moderators slurp out the essence and hand it over to the related devs. Yes, we need the forums, we need the moderators, and we also need that the moderators will be involved into Gentoo completely, so that they know our rare internals and are allowed to take part on elections about the future of the project. Please keep in mind what has been said before: This thread ain't be a flamefest. This is the official and transparent way in how to integrate our forums as an official Gentoo project.
