[mythtv-users] Mailing list and a Wiki... and a dessert topping

I say let there be the existing mailing lists, the official docs and a wiki.  
Wikis are good to putting in new docs, etc...  The mailing list is good for 
discussions and having gossamer is good for searching.  

I don't like the idea of a forum on top of this... I think maybe splitting the 
mailing lists into a myth-users and myth-hardware would cut down on some of 
the traffic that maybe making a forum attractive to some.

So if I had a vote, I would say +1 for a wiki (for user contributed 
documentation and walk throughs and such).  -1 for a forum or other 
discussion based technology.

Aside from that, I think this chain has reached the point where no one is 
going to convince anyone that they are right or wrong, and since its not 
going away I am guessing that it will go on forever.  So, to all parties 
involved, I would say just do it.  If the community is behind you they will 
use it.

The internet is a great place
