(btw. what will happen with the idea of the forum living on the Wiki machine if that machine is decommissioned? Do we have any alternatives? Any news from OSUOSL?)
The only thing I've heard is the message we got many weeks ago. They'd really really like to move us away from a custom Gentoo box and towards a managed system, things like the Forum, Wiki and Planet are natural modules for such a managed system.
If we install a forum on the wiki server, we'd be doing it on our own. It's something we could do, it's available to us, but a more conservative look says we probably shouldn't be.
But we can continue to dialog with them about the services we have with them. I'll be honest, if decommissioning the wiki machine helps us with our admin and makes osuosl happy enough to help us more with forums and websites, I'd like to be able to make them happy with us.
