The forums announcement went out yesterday, and within a day (give or take), we’ve gotten more than 700 people signed up for the new merged forums. That’s not bad at all, and I can’t wait to see how the forums grow over time and in sync with the openSUSE 11.0 release that is just a bit more than one week away.

Since the forums launched we’ve already been covered by Download Squad, Desktop Linux, and a slew of blogs. (I think a few more pieces are in the works as well…) And, as promised, we have a shiny new podcast up on Novell Open Audio.I had a lot of fun doing the podcast (not as much fun scheduling it — getting five people from different timezones all on the phone at once is a bit of a challenge) so download it and give it a listen when you have some time. It’s great to listen to Keith, Rupert, Kim, and Wolfi talk about their roles in the project and where they want the forums to go.
