Dr Mike,

I'm not sure what mood you have, but perhaps you missed the long discussion
that was had on wp-hackers about an "advanced" forum.  The general consensus
was that if there was a forum at wp.org/support that was minus the noise of
the basic posts and were of the more detailed nature, they would drop in
more.  This was an option discussed, and I was simply looking to see if it
was implementable.  Sure we have "enough" to do, however, my goal is to help
as many users as possible, including those that have a better understanding
of code, but don't know/want to post to wp-hackers about their attempts at
plugin writing, or understanding the more technical aspects of WP.  Often
those posts go unanswered in the forum.
