I'm not nearly as concerned about whether there are forums as about
having "rogue" forums outside the postgresql.org domain.  People could
misperceive such things as having some official status, which would lead
to conclusions like "postgres must be dead because there's no traffic in
this forum".  It needs to be connected to the community as a whole, and
some random guy deciding to create his own forum doesn't sound like a
recipe for getting to that.

(BTW, if memory serves, this has happened before, with no positive
long-term results.)
