Also, wj doesn't say if it is just a rename (include WLM in the title) or adding another subforum (which would be IMO totally useless and far more confusing).

I completely disagree, the whole user interface has completely changed for everything.
That does not mean a new forum should be made. The change in GUI is not important, most stuff still stays the same.

There was never a new forum for when Messenger changed user interfaces, never a new forum for when there were changes in Plus! menus and preference, etc.

Making a new forum will seriously confuse many people, will produce even more duplicated threads, threads in the wrong forum, more work for mods, etc. etc. It is of no use and will in fact cause more chaos and duplicated threads and people not "finding" their stuff because they are searching in wrong subforums (if they search at all).

A new subforum isn't needed just because an UI changes or even because some internal code changes. Plus! will still be Plus!, Messenger will still be Messenger.

The only new subforum which I could see usefull would be "scripts" as that is requires a completely different approach than "plugins". Will have its specific problems and what not. (Though even there is a grey-area where general talk about plugins and script will overlap eachother).
