I'll feel free to not even bookmark it. I'm sorry, but it is just a bad idea. Your forum cannot (and should not) compete either with Python's official newsgroup, IRC channel and mailing list or with popular, well- made and well-frequented general programming sites like stackoverflow.com. It would be the Internet equivalent of looking for a poker tournament in a desert valley instead of driving half an hour less and going to Las Vegas: there are no incentives to choose your forum, except perhaps for isolationists who value being a big fish in a small pond over being part of a community. If you want to claim a small Python-related corner of the web, you should write a blog: if it is any good, and probably even if it isn't, it would be linked and read by someone and it would add to collective knowledge instead of fragmenting it.
