What is that powerful about their framework, that Mageia does not 
have?
Any specifics? I don't recall you ever asking for any infrastructure on 
this list or any of the others.
Neither do I remember anyone except the Germans to ask for a forum of 
their own (I know it's not running yet, some technical problem)
But a bit of reasing why I (I don't say "we" because I can't speak for 
any of the others, this is only my personal opinion) don't want to 
have this kind of splitting up the community is:
- This will split the manpower and thus weaken the whole community
- Users won't be able to use one single account for all Mageia 
platforms
- I am afraid, beginning such split communities may end up in a lot of 
silly third party repos just confusing the users (like MIB, MUD, MCNL, 
BDK and so on)

Are you talking about a redirect from the mageia forums to yours or 
from the main website?
