Describe the bug

These all lead to a 'connection refused':
https://forum.processing.org/alpha/
https://forum.processing.org/beta/
https://forum.processing.org/one/
https://forum.processing.org/two/

See here: https://discourse.processing.org/t/welcome-to-the-processing-foundation-discourse/8
And here under 'Contributions': https://processing.org/reference/tools/

Expected behavior

I assume we all want the old forums to still be available.
