it's pretty much impossible to develop the software and pay attention to the 
forums as well; both end up taking a lot of time on their own ;)

for the forums to succeed, we need users who can help other users and triage 
difficult questions to the developers for (hopefully quick) answers that can 
then be relayed back to the forums

it's really no different than 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc levels of support in a 
commercial product in that way
