Forum URI suggestion

I suggest a cooler URI for the forum so it will be more robust in case of a change in the forum engine.

Currently the URI of the osdev forum is : http://www.osdev.org/phpBB2/

I suggest http://www.osdev.org/forum/

With a redirection from "phpBB2" to "forum" for the time the users update their bookmarks.

Yeah 'forum' instead of 'phpbb2' does sound better as a URI.

You guys have way too much time on your hands :) The url has been the same for several months for 1842 people so I'd rather not change it. Besides the back half of the urls would break(bookmarked topics) if the forum software ever changed so there is no point in worrying about the first part. I'd probably use that url if/when the forum software gets replaced.
