I'd say this is needed more than ever at this point.
While originally the idea didn't pan out so well, I'd say that was due mainly to the complexity that was trying to be pushed with the idea upon the community, among other things. There's really no need for many restrictions, as it should be nothing more than a private forum for leadership of the shells to keep in touch with each other and plan events. However, it should not be used for discussing the state of the community, nor to discuss what is happening within the community (drama-wise, etc). There's no need for people to discuss either of those things behind closed doors, especially the latter. It should be a simple forum for planning events, nothing more.
