Re: new forum, what happened? make a plan?

Correct if wrong, but I got the impression that it's still being worked on.
I'm liaising with Doctormo, and Jabier to try and integrate the visual

If it's true that we're going back into a state of limbo do tell me so I
don't do extra work for nothing! :)

Thanks.
