These are unofficial forums (now labeled clearly as such), though I think
we should consider making them official at some point, perhaps after a
period of time where we can see how they do.

I think newcomer users really expect to get information in the forum
format, so I think it could be very useful. I guess we'll see what happens
there in the meantime :)

We can't really host them on gnome.org until we do some cleaning up of the environment.

So for now, they are unofficial although Andrea is supporting it.  (thanks, Andrea!)
