The forum is maintained via private subboards currently.
*Proposal #1:*
Wiki Markup
The private boards are put to read only.
A new public board "site governance" is established to discuss forum related tasks. The messages are sent automatically to a readonly mailinglist name "forum-sitegovernance@".
A new private board "private xxx" is established to discuss sensitive tasks, like for example user behavior. The messages are sent automatically to a privately archived mailing list (allowing Apache Members and Apache OpenOffice PPMC members to view) with a specific tag \ [OOODEV:forum\].
