>From the discussion here about changing the forums around

http://www.geeklog.net/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=91053&lastpost=true

While I don't see this as an instant fix for more community involvement I do
see it as a small step in the right direction. I like most of 1ynx
suggestions (see below) but I would suggest adding


Google Summer of Code
- GSOC 2010
- GSOC 2011 (would be added if we get accepted next year)

after Development and Coding and maybe changing Development and Coding too

Development & Coding (previously Developers Only)
- GL 1.7 
- GL 1.8
- GL 1.9 (would be added once 1.7 released) 


Does anyone else like this suggestion or have any of their own about how the
forums should be setup?

Development & Coding (previously Developers Only)
- GL 1.x (maybe expand this a little into e.g. Core code, Plugins,
Templating, etc. making it a place where everyone can ask development or
code related questions?)
