Contributors near and far, join in and express your ideas at either meeting of contributors or here online, as our community grows with a new server, hosting, and from new contributors gathered offline.
Up for discussion are items on our radar:
-
What happened during the April 3–5 outage and why was it necessary? What are the strengths, weaknesses, options, and threats in running our own server?
-
Welcoming new readers, truly prospective contributors: What can they expect? What should we expect? How should our community of editors comport ourselves and handle each of our and others' free speech rights, from offensive content, copyright violations, trolling, abusive behavior, editing and deleting others' comments, to spamming. What are other wikis doing about “neutral point of view” or “no self-promotion”? Are edit wars inevitable?
-
Comments are growing overwhelming, and readers are starting to drown in layers of context. Changing the comment box from a small text input to the new “textarea” ought ease and aid commenting, but that encourages even more comments. Let's gain ideas on how to use comments constructively.
-
Who pays to operate the wiki, and how should we organize to share the administrative burdens? Who watches the wiki, and who watches the watchdog? Off in corner a proposal has languished. Is incorporating as a cooperative in our future?

I would like to discuss having comments placed on a sub-page called Comments. E.g 07 April Agenda/Comments. This page could be included in the main article page. Minor adjustments to the comment code would be required to support this and I would like to get feedback before I devoted any resources to making code changes. Talk page would remain as the page to hold meta discussions about a main article. —AdamDewitz
