The reason why so many first questions end up in 'Infrastructure Solutions'

It can't have escaped notice that the 'Infrastructure Solutions' forum seems to be the "dumping ground" for loads of first posts which should be in other forums.

It would be very useful to give the possibility to choose the forum after clicking '+ New' button."
