What's the advantage of having two new > forums (LinkedIn, #adalego)? I guess each kind of forum has slightly different 'dynamics'. An irc channel can provide a tutorial like forum (for quick/minor/ informal questions). A Linkedin (or other email like) forum can give more lecture-like style of question/answer (ie to discuss new ideas or aspects). So i suppose my vote would be for one of each. Regards.
