Hi Vincent,
I would have also voted for the forum, I thought it would be really useful. But now that you tell us about Nabble, sure it has he best of both a forum and a mailing list. But why didn't we know about Nabble before asking for a forum ?
Yes you're right, I've just added it to Mailing Lists page: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/MailingLists Note the info box that I've put at the end (which summarizes one of the things I don't like with forums). BTW there are a lot of sites like Nabble that we may not know about. I didn't know that we were registered on Nabble either, I just checked and was happy to see it was subscribed to the XWiki mailing list. The same could apply to: - mail-archive.com. Checking... No it's not subscribed. - http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/ ? Checking... No we're not subscribed. - gmane. Checking... Yes we're subscribed: http://gmane.org/find.php? list=xwiki Basically all it needs is that someone subscribes the mail address of these tools to the xwiki mailing lists for XWiki to get archived there. Thanks -Vincent

What is wrong with that and what would you suggest to do differently?
In order for a forum to be of any use, developers and users should know about it. It should be linked more prominently from xwiki.org. Now I don't even know if there is any link, and this is bad.
