I'm not in favor of sub-forums in general as I don't think they make either the Mod.'s workload easier nor improve the casual surfer's experience as much as proponents expect. Both newbies and veterans unfamiliar with the change aren't always quick to grasp the subtle distinction about where topics should go as is witnessed regularly on the MR forum with threads that are posted there which are more appropriate to the MR Discussion forum.

Just MHO.
