Even without the editor in our hands for months, the forum is there to collaborate and discuss the mods that people want to come up with. We have information about what we can do with the editor, and that gives people a lot to discuss about what is/isn't possible, and also ask questions about the editor. It is a central location for everything involving modding, without having all the talk cluttering up and getting lost in the general discussion forum.
I was thinking of the community also making guides to using the editor as we figure out more complex tasks. This will speed the learning process for others and increase the amount of content made by the community. With this kind of support and a tool this powerful the potential of what can be done here is infinite.
