Description

Container bug to discuss modernizing user discussions.

Based on feedback, today's Forums + NNTP seem to be inadequate for most.

Some potential solutions:

• Discourse (bug 437064)

• Leveraging the existing community and tools on Stack Overflow

• Without NNTP (bug 348464), we can investigate a more modern forum solution

I'm open to ideas.
