"New Topic" instead of "New Forum"

Not trying to nitpic here, but in the forums when you post a new topic, it says you're posting a new forum. A bit confusing the first time around. It's a small thing, I know, but a thought none-the-less. Is it a normal thing to call that a new 'forum' or is it just a typo of sorts?

Where are you seeing the text
Where are you seeing the text "new forum?" We designed it to say, "New Forum Discussion" to highlight the fact that you are starting a discussion.
We considered using "topic," but we use that to refer to the topic tags associated with each forum post (beta, installation, how to, etc). So we settled on "discussion" as the term to use. But if somewhere in our interface we forgot to include the word "Discussion" then let us know and we'll get it addressed!
I'm glad you asked!
New forum discussion sounds fine, that's better then "Create Forum"

When you go to a forum and click "create a new discussion" (which is fine) then you get the form to fill out, at the top it says Create Forum in big bold letters. Also, the titlebar of the page says "Create Forum".

You get the same thing if you
You get the same thing if you go to the Forums "tab" in the section you're intersted in (Endpoint, for example) then click "Start a new discussion". The "Create Forum" is displayed at the top of the page and the browser title bar.
