But at the end of the day the maintenance and distribution and basic user support for the super cool, fascinating, rich, stunning, extensible, innovative, scalable, brilliant, integrated,cross-platform, user-friendly, portable, resource efficient, self-healing, rock solid apps falls to those of us a little less qualified. So I would like to humbly suggest the addition of a forum for system administrators that would serve as a means for feedback and understanding between us and Microsoft Server Systems primarily, as well as others in development.
This has been mentioned in another thread. Just thought it time to give a little more "push".
EDIT: For this to work we would really need the involvement of some of Microsoft's employees in the respective areas such as OS, Sql, Exchange, ect.
I am not talking about an area for us to have techinical questions answered, there are other sources for that, but rather a place where we can gain understanding of where Microsoft is going, and can share our experience of being on that ride.
'Cause when you tie your leg to a train, you pretty much go where the train goes..
You don't contribute much even to this forum, why do you want another forum? There is a video section just for that purpose, you don't seem to be there either. You are way busy here "freaking out people".

With this kind of comments you are not a serious contributor now.
The focus of channel 9 is developers, not sys admins, not CEOs, not XP users, not Office customers, but developers. Live with that or start being serious and contribute significantly and the channel 9 team may see a real need for such a forum. Right now, all you want is Microsoft employees serving content to you and where you might post few comments occasionally. For understanding where Microsoft is going videos are already great.
