I would also like to see general categories where people can talk of 
LibreOffice in a specific and general way -- a LibreOffice Community 
Hub. We also need to do a better job at community building if we are 
serious about this. Maybe the hierarchy could look like this:

========
[LibreOffice Apps (Need Help? Ask Here!]

Writer
Calc
Impress
Draw
Math
Base
Accessibility
Extensions
Templates

========

[Package Support]

* Installation and Configuration (single or home network installation 
and configuration)
* Medium/Large Scale Installations (installation; configuration; 
management) *
* Security and Performance
* General Questions (related to support only)
* Distribution Feedback and Suggestions (general feedback; platform; 
wishlist)

========

[Community Feedback]

* TDF News (news and foundation updates)
* LibreOffice Community News or LibreOffice Café (general updates on our 
community; event updates and news; what are other NL groups up to?)
* LibreOffice in the News (what the world thinks of LibreOffice and our 
community)
* LibreOffice in Business  (case studies and showcases [NOT A SUPPORT 
AREA!]) *
* LibreOffice in Education (case studies and showcases [NOT A SUPPORT 
AREA!]) *

========

I am not sure if we would need a dev section. I think the devs are 
comfortable with the lists and IRC. The coding concerns coming from 
users would find their way in the Apps section of the forums. Same thing 
for bug reports and bug results.

* We need to encourage talk of medium/large scale installations in 
business and education. This will also create buzz around LibreOffice 
and show that we also offer support and guidance for these installations.


Cheers,

Marc
