Description
please do a time quote for:
(a) addition of a *private* forum facility to transitionnewtork.org - only invited members can see/add posts
(b) addition of a forum to workspaces.transitionnetwork.org features - essentially including a forum in the workspace features
There is a growing interest in enabling all the national hubs to have a place to share/discuss etc.

Much faff will be needed to to a) on TN.org.
BUT!!! a+b can happen on workspaces very simply...
See: http://drupal.org/project/og_forum
Therefore, (b) would be a case of adding the module, allowing groups to use these. While (a) would be a case of adding a new private group in Workspaces with members controlled as needed, then simply using the forum that is auto-set up.
This is the simple case, needs a release to LIVE and means .5-1.5 hours to set it up.
If you want (a) on TN.org, well that's probably 20 minutes of research just to find an answer, then all the danger/problems we had before we moved workspaces out - namely content type permissions + user roles + OG + bespoke stuff = pain.
