Excellent. To clarify: The Wiki and the forums are, obviously, not mutually exclusive. However, both do some things well, and others not so well. Forums are, in my personal opinion, good tools for the exchange of news and opinions. They are not very good for storing, and making available, aggregated information. The Wiki is the exact opposite. Using the forum to gather information, and then compile it in a Wiki article, is how I would go about this subject matter. Add to that the Wiki database, and you should be all set.
Mind you, this is my personal opinion which I am not trying to impose upon anybody. Not really, that is.
