The point here is not /his/ solution, but I think he's just expressing 
what he'd do (and I believe most of us dumb-mortal-users would do as 
well) if the RedHat guys go ahead with this idea. That is definitely a 
very bad idea, one that would probably jeopardize the whole 
"fedora-users-community" idea. There's been plenty of solutions proposed 
here on this thread there are *much* better than the dreaded web forums.

I second JDow's opinion. / Eeeewwwww, web forums. Bye guys. /. If they 
*want* ideas, they'll certainly find within this (so far) community.
