As someone who only just joined the forum -- I'm +1: - The forum has seen great adoption from what I can tell (nearly half the number of posts as django-developers during the same time period, not bad given the mailing list's head start in subscribers). - It seems beneficial to house future conversations in a single place, e.g., so members don't need to subscribe to both the mailing list and forum to get the full picture of current active development, set up two different sets of mail filters to tag things appropriately, etc...
Would the plan be to switch django-users as well? I think similar arguments could be made for consolidating those... (On the other hand, I see little value in switching django-announce and django-updates, but I'm not necessarily opposed to it either, especially if there's a way to import the subscribers to those lists...)
