Forums are incredibly popular among users where they can dig into
existing discussions without getting the whole lot like you do on a
mailig list.  Do not discount them as an effective end-user support
process where users support users and developers get on with their job
on the mailing lists.  That is how forums typically work.

I don't think XOrg necessarily needs a forum.  Perhaps a freedesktop.org
forum would be better, and could be an interesting place indeed.
