Re: Inkscape Forum

Indeed, InkscapeForum.com is the de facto official forum.  It was removed from 
the links on the Community page (a couple or 3 years ago) because it came to 
light that except for spam control, there is no other significant management of 
the forum (just loyal and dedicated members, helping Inkscape users, day in and 
day out).  In my  opinion, it screams to be updated.  We have no access to its 
server.

The single owner/admin has twice said he will provide the forum to become 
community managed.  And now that the Inkscape project has it's own server, a new 
forum has been installed, and is ready and waiting for him to deposit the 
databases and other files.  I guess we've been waiting around 4 or 5 months?

I'm not sure what we're going to do, but I guess it's probably time to address 
it, and decide what "Plan B" is going to be.  Just my opinion though.

Certainly if it's databases are used to start the new official forum, it will be 
well-linked from the website!

All best,
brynn

Hi Guys,

I am a long time inkscape user but I just recently found the forum. Maybe it is 
just me but isn't it possible for us to include the forum 
(www.inkscapeforum.com) in one of the main menus of the Inkscape website? (maybe 
under the option "community" of under the option "learn"?)

There such a rich wealth of knowledge and so many active discussions that I feel 
like I have rediscovered this application today altogether!

What do you think?

Regards,
