Why do you want a *forum*?  A mailing lists (and probably added to 
gmane.org) would suffice.

VIA promises a forum "later this year". My point is that they are turning off potential contributors by making an announcement before they are ready.

I agree, mailing lists are more useful. I've seen many users asking strange questions in mailing lists after being mislead in forums by people who don't know what they are talking about.
