I didn't mean any wrong with this mailing list, I've learned many things here. It's just a suggestion we may add new things for our communication. With the developing of Guile, we do need new things to share more, say ,wiki/forum... And guilers may share tutorials/articles/projects on it, like other community does. > If somebody wants to to create some additional forum, I would not be against > it.

The problem is, who's going to create/maintain it? Any volunteers? And could this be the official part of Guile?
