Farewell to FamilySearch Forums

I mentioned in a previous post that the FamilySearch Forums are scheduled to be discontinued on 21 December 2012. The Forums have been posted with the following statement:
We are transitioning our Forums into a new question and answer tool. These tools are in testing over the next month. Learn more, or join in the testing of this new tool here.
The statement is repeated as this Notice also, which is slightly different than the one above:
Forums Notice 
FamilySearch Forums will be discontinued after December 31, 2012. We are transitioning our Forums into a new question and answer tool, and these tools are in testing over the next month. Learn more, or join in the testing of this new tool here.

Presently, clicking on the link takes you to an Announcement page with this same information. So far, there is no clear indication as to what direction the "question and answer tool" will take or who will be "answering" the questions.
