Rationale
WF does not implement Echo notifications, and I doubt it will for a long time. With not that much more effort in the long-run, we can implement our own similar forum-style central discussion area with StructuredDiscussions/Flow.

Idea
This is a mockup for a possible WikiForum replacement that would utilise StructuredDiscussions. This board list would be on some page only editable by administrators, perhaps under a  namespace. Each page linked on here will also be in that  namespace, and SD will be enabled on all of them through EnableStructuredDiscussions (won't show up unless SD is added). This still allows for a central place of discussion, but since the boards aren't under special pages, it's a lot less hassle to manage.
