Anybody who thinks we need another forum needs his head examined. There is no shortage of Wine forums. We just need to use the ones that already exist. Adding a new one will just fragment the community further.
In particular, there are two forums right now that people already use to discuss wine problems: a generic one at http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/wine/ and an Ubuntu-specific one at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=313 Let's just link to them. I'll submit a patch to do that in a minute.
This is certainly good idea!
And I like Griswold's idea (on IRC) of improving the current appdb in small ways, e.g. changing the reply behavior to not open up a new page.
For goodness' sake, don't create yet another new forum!

I agree that there is no need in "just another forum", really... Main point of this discussion was that winehq.org should have a link(s) to a forum(s) of some kind (WINE related) so users can find it easily. That's more than enough, actually. I saw your recent patch for this and I think this is exactly what was needed to fix the issue. So I think this topic is resolved (or, to be exact, will be resolved when your patch will be committed). Thank you for quick fix!
