> fora(? forii? forums??)

Despite being a Latin word, the plural is neither "fora" nor "forii",
but English-style "forums".

Due to repeated (ab)use, the term "fora" will probably become accepted
English within a few years.

But until then, if used in manuals and documentation, please use "forums".
