Where are the forums?!

It seems that for this sort of heavy traffic, it would be better to have a
forum that people could easily search, post, browse, etc. I get some of my
best tech support on forums, and it seems like it would seriously cut down
on redundant mail list questions.
I really like linuxquestions.org, and they have a section dedicated to
specific distros--their only requirement is that the forum is 'official'
meaning that someone from the ubuntu project will need to be the liason
between the two groups.
Hell, I would even be willing to try hosting the forums (but I don't know
that I have enough experience, or the equipment to handle the load **not
to mention that I just started school**). I am on a 1.5/256 DSL
connection, and judging by the amount of mail there is here, there's
probably no way my connection could handle it--and if it somehow could, I
don't know if my little PIII 500MHz server would hold up either?
Anyways, if anyone knows where some pre-existing forums are, wants to try
linuxquestions, or has some advice for me--then feel free to let me/us
know :)
