That was our purpose by testing it.

I don't think that we should use any Forums. The attachments could put 
in the tickets we create.

We won't get any central place.

IMHO we should not leave it completely:
Bugzilla is mainly used for UX but not for VI-marketing stuff (badges, 
logos, flyers etc.).
We should discuss and announce on ml. We should cancel the Forum and the 
Wiki but not the ticketing in Redmine (especially not for VI).
If we leave Redmine the Design proposals for VI will migrate to 
marketing place in Redmine or something else.
See also Florian's explanations about Redmine:
https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/698#change-2011
If we use Redmine as it is provided it will work.

You know that I don't think about UX- but only for VI-marketing work.

Let me give an example: To work on the design material for the next 
LibO-Con Redmine is a really good place to manage it.
We can ticketing, time stamp it, attach, we have a central place for 
information on that case. I don't need a Redmine wiki or a Forum for 
that. Discussing will be on ml.
