I would like to update links on the wiki, in Slicer help text, etc. and I’m wondering how should we call this website:

- Slicer forum
- Slicer forums
- Slicer discourse website
- Slicer discussion website
- …?

Since discourse is providing free service … using “Slicer discourse website” would make sense.

And here is a poll to collect feedback

Based on the poll, we should refer to this web site as “Slicer forum”, right @jcfr?
