Agree, this is not really to the website team to decide.
It should be the Italian community, why not through the ambassador mailing list.
But this has also been raised to the advisory-board mailing list. We are
spreading the discussion (without going really further).

It is far easier to have only one portal, one forum…
But if you guys feel the need to have a second one, that's because something is
not going right for everyone.

We could understand facts, but we won't understand it as an Italian contributor.
We are abroad and only know what is written here. We don't *feel* how goes the
community.
Giving a GO for a website is a hard question. To prevent misjudging, should we
just say "yes" if the domain name is approved?.

I believe that there should be only one local community portal, but some other
could serve specific purpose. Like for test, devels, simple users… There are
many ways. Of course if it's only a dupplicate… One would grow faster.
Furthermore, infrastructure and moderation take lot of time, the time that we
loose at contribution.

There is no easy answer.

Our main goal is not to gather users… But to grab contributors :)
(But yeah I got your point).

The main problem here is that we don't have contributors willing to help sorting that,
but the one directly involved.

IMHO it is not only about ambassadors, I know many contributors more actives at
spreading Fedora/going to events than real ambassadors. This is a Project wide
question involving the whole local community.
That's why I believe advisory-board could help (but they are not answering).

Could an Italian contributor sum up this thread on the existing one? 
Please, be fair and explain the facts not what *you* want.
If needed, I could do so, but not before next week.
