In the meantime, pop over to Keith Combs blog and weigh in on where the TechNet forums should go.  I think the day of the forum has passed and sites like StackOverflow, ServerFault, Concentrated Tech, and other QA sites are the next iteration.  Should MS detour away from the forums and spend the time and money on other content?  Keith Combs is asking - give him your opinion.

 Talk with you next week!
