I think, that actually forum is too big and hard to find topics.
I have one proposal: to existing forum add one group "Hardware" with subforums for all modules (1wire, AccuWeather, Arilux, Atax .... and moooore).
And all problems, bugs, to-do, development etc users can direct to this subforums. Users will know where to write, and developers will know where to read posts about their modules. It will also be easier to catch duplicates.
It will take care of the rest of subforums (much less mixed posts).
I'm the author of 5 modules, but I'm not able to break through all the subforums to find what may concern me

Fantom
ps. Maybe new one or two admins need, who will be able to move or delete abnormally placed post.
