Please note, this thread is now 10 months and nearly 50 pages old and has covered a ton of topics - as such it's overdue being locked as it's no longer possible to follow and lots of good ideas/comment is getting lost. I'd recommend that people create new forum threads if they want to continue various topics (please do, lots of this is good feedback) - I'll leave this thread open until tomorrow to allow people to post links to any new threads, but after that it will be locked.

I'm of the opinion that locking the thread would be the wrong thing to do

"Is the desire to keep forums around just nostalgia or a need?"
I think each tool has its place in the toolbox. Like you said, forums are great for debates like this. Q&A would be horrible for this. What is really needed is good guidance on which tool to use for which task.

Personally if I have a website and I am going to offer online support, I would use forum over Q&A. Simply because Q&A is not an appropriate means for discussions. Ideally, it would be a hybrid. A forum with voting and tags and for sure an advanced search functionality using logical operator, by title only, date range, author and it has to be FAST. I would put the forums on a fast machine with lots of memory. The forums on dnnsoftware.com are so sluggish, it's a shame. They never worked fast and they give the impression that DNN itself is slow.

In the interests of clarity I should say that we are not rejecting Sebastian's contributions out of hand (in fact we incorporated 36  of his contributions in 7.2.1 and will do a further 34 in 7.2.2 ). However we often do have different thoughts on things and we tend to be more cautious that some (including Sebastian) would like - whilst he will loudly argue his point we always know that that comes mostly from passion and not anger (well, maybe a little bit of anger...:) )

For DNN 7.2.1, possible restrictions had been identified by other testers and added to the feature. Some fixes have been recently rejected, because I corrected them according to feedback, where user data didn't meet expected situation, as the table structure is lacking constraints for integrity (besides indexes, foreign keys etc.), which makes it more difficult to improve performance.  In an ideal world (DNN 4), data access was encapsulated in a provider, and it would have been a great chance to create a smooth alternative, even on the same db engine. Subsequent versions opened up direct access to the tables, which will cause a number of issues in the future, I fear...

agreed. I don't see a benefit in censorship - besides making it easier for NSA and GCHQ to follow (do they know, what sarcasm is - I usually have issues with irony in the core team).
