Hello all,

As an end user, I would like to know if there is any forward progress on 
doing something about the CentOS forums?

This apparently has came up time and again, with various examples being 
given of the deficiencies of the existing setup (depending on your point 
of view).  As near as I can tell the general consensus seems to be 'yes, 
something needs to be done'... and thats about as far as it gets.  I 
realize everybody has lots on their plate, but this has been languishing 
for a year or more, with no apparent changes being made.  For a 
self-proclaimed 'enterprise' OS, the associated support forum doesn't 
make much of a first impression.

What needs done?  What needs decided?  Whose backside needs a fire lit 
under it?  What can *I* do?
