Look at Ubuntu. This is one of the most pleasant and easy to use support sites I have ever come across, commercial or Open Soure.
Ubuntu has ONE forum. Which is why online support for Ubuntu is so good. Perhaps they realise that having more than one forum would be a really bad idea.
...or maybe they just haven't thought of it? ![](https://xoops.org/uploads/smil42e7a65fee35d.gif)
Exactly, that's what I am saying. We need "Forums.xoops.org" and then links to the other official forums that provide support in their respective languages with common themes....Just like Ubuntu.
I am merely addressing the fact that the organization owns the hardware and has paid to have it nicely configured and tested for production. It happens to be xoopsinfo.org at this point but with a theme change, users database integration and a DNS entry we'd be in business. It takes some time to implement but a lot of the hard part has been done.
Then do something like ubuntu does for development and bug tracking. It all appears as one nicely integrated site but is in fact multiple different servers providing different services to those involved in different aspects of the community. This provides plenty of scalability and performance and so forth to the community.
