I agree.  Having both is probably a good idea.

Most other major non-SC KDE software has their own sub-forum on the
official KDE forums.  This includes koffice, calligra (separate
sub-forums for each), amarok, k3b, kaffeine, kmymoney, scrooge, and
tellico.  Digikam is the only major exception that I can think of.

Amarok's  sub-forum has its own structure with its own topic and
language-specific sub-sub-forums (these, and all posts, were migrated
from Amarok's old dedicated forum).  So you wouldn't need to set up
your own software or your own website, you would just need to talk to
the forum admins about adding the necessary sub-forum.
