Maybe a site dedicated to Gaming on Linux would be a good place to host one?
Perhaps the following structure might be suitable.
- Programming Linux Games- General
- Graphics
- Sound
- Input/Output (controllers, filesystem)
- Libraries (probably be a lot of cross-posts from the above 3)
- Languages

Maybe call the forum Game development on Linux, split into Programming, Engines and Miscellaneous (for discussions on subjects like using Blender or Gimp to create graphical assets, audio, team recruitment etc.)?
I know there are at least a handful of people working on their own games among us and even more software developers interested in games, myself included, but I can't say if this could take off. In fact, it might be more useful to collect related info and links in the wiki and point to places like gamedev.net for questions and discussion. That's where the developers are and not all of them might be inclined to look for platform-specific forums around the web.
Great addition! It will help me (and many others I believe) a lot!!! :D
