Well, that's actually not true :-) Björns initial proposal that was the base for kicking of the coordinators stuff explicitly mentioned the possibility of moving contributors stuff to the forum, that it would be important not to have a users-only forum to begin with. http://www.mail-archive.com/marketing@global.libreoffice.org/msg05840.html I explicitly referred to it in http://www.mail-archive.com/marketing@global.libreoffice.org/msg05887.html / http://www.mail-archive.com/website@global.libreoffice.org/msg08461.html and as such his thoughts about is important for a successful forum launch also made their way into the planning page in the wiki: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Forum-planning So just because you didn't follow the forum-creation process doesn't mean "that was never mentioned!!!!!". On the contrary, that idea was part of it from the very start. > That was never discussed > and so far I think we are only at the stage of opening something...

If contributors in that area don't like that, it will all stay as is.
