I'm personally very much against that. StackExchange and that whole
set of sites in general is extremely user unfriendly. Even I find it
difficult to use and hard to find what I'm looking for on there.

I'd rather we revamp the existing forum structure into something
better, with new features. Forums are better than weird
"question/answer" sites that nobody can follow or have conversations
on.

So no, I'm not supporting this notion at all.
