A forum?
People have been asking for a web forum. It could provide the following benefits:
- People could chat among themselves and figure out their own ideas for making open source a more fun place.
- In general, it would help people have more conversations on the OpenHatch site. So as a group, we could discuss neat game-mechanics ideas, that sort of thing.
- People could discuss their problems getting involved with projects.
- People could say, "Hey, I found this bitesize bug and got stuck -- what do I do next?" and have a decent chance of someone answering.
It would have the following costs:
- We'd have to maintain a forum.
- People will flame us and say that mailing lists are the answer to all of life's problems.
