    Not sure if this is a bug or not, but when I ask a question here, it properly detects that I want this forum.  When I attempt to do so on the Windows Communication Foundation forum, it asks me where I want to post to and windows communication foundation is not listed there for me to select.  I can view this forum but I cannot seem to post to it.  I only have like 5 posts and nothing I have posted can be construed in any way as abuse, so I am wondering why my posting to that forum is no longer working, hence I am thinking it might be a bug.

    Any ideas?

    There's an awkward problem with "brands".  You can see a forum from all 5 brands, but you can only post to it when you've got the correct brand selected.  Make sure the URL you use starts with social.msdn.microsoft.com to select the MSDN brand.

    You may not have access to post to the Windows Communication Foundation forum for some reason.  It could be that the Forum is a Moderator Posting only forum.

    Actually I have posted there in the past.  It has just recently gone this way for two of my user accounts.  One I have posted with before there, and one I have never posted under at all?  I see new posts by other users being added, yet I cannot seem to add any, and the other users are not forum moderators.

    Also, I can edit my previous posts..
