Yeah forcing, a weak hand has to pass 3♦.

both make sense to me, so if it can be forcing it is forcing.

NF. 3♦ doesn't show extra values. Why should responder have to stick it out in 3♦ with a void diamond, six good hearts and a side card?

This auction is a contrast to:

1♦ - 1♥
3♦ - 3♥

That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

I'm with Helene. 3♥ is forcing.

The reason why responder has to stick it out in 3♦ with a void in diamonds is that you want to stop bidding when there is a misfit. Partner doesn't have a fit for your hearts and you don't have a fir for his diamonds: Stop bidding.

2H was forcing one round so opener had to bid something; 3D showed nothing extra although slight extras are possible. 3H is trying to improve the contract showing a 6th heart. I suppose it would be possible for responder to pass 3D with only the promised 10HCP and misfit in diamonds, but this carries serious chance of missing game if opener has anything extras, Kx hearts for example (he has already denied 3-card support).
