I'm lost here, I don't understand what you're proposing to do.

Let's summarize:

Thierry framed the problem:

And he made a proposa to split between:

> 2/ Development, contribution, Folsom / forward-looking discussions
>

He said nothing about point 1. I assumed that openstack-operators is 
one of the place for discussions around usage, deployment and such 
(another place for that is the forum).

It seems to me there there is consensus to keep openstack-operators and 
forums running therefore I'll ask Todd to review the 
openstack.org/community pages (and the top navigation bar) in order to 
make these landing destinations more prominent.

Cheers,
stef
