Not at all.

No problem -- you don't have to use them. The gramps-devel list is
still active for developers, the gramps-users is for general discussions,
and gramps-bugs is for bugs.

They are not, but it's OK. Just like the IRC channel did not obsolete
gramps-devel, these will not compete with the mailing lists. They are for
the general community to discuss whatever is relevant. If these forums will
be unused, we will simply remove them.
