If they're still going to support Forums for themselves, then other wikis should have Forums as an option as well. CC isn't exempted - it might just end up being the last one to migrate out of Forums. Forums itself will definitely be going away in the future - no wikis will be expected to keep Forums and will have to either go to Discussions or back to wiki-style forums.

Yeah, I agree with you, but I just think that it's a lot more scarce than wikis like CC. This whole thread, for example, can easily live in Discussions. The template that I am reminded of most that is used in Forums is "Support" and "Oppose" templates, which just add an image and a bit of colour, which isn't really necessary. I would have to take a guess that nearly all Forums posts are not using Lua or anything dynamic in their posts.
