[wp-forums] WordPressMU and WordPress.com

[Eric Ragle]

I agree. eric.wordpress.com <http://eric.wordpress.com> would rock as well, 
but I'll gladly wait to quench my curiosity until it's made more open to the 
public.

I've mainly sat back and watched the forums over the past few days just to 
see what kind of traffic they get from the publicity. 1.6, in my opinion 
will be more popular than 1.5.
