Village pump sections
  • Policy
  • To discuss existing and proposed policies.
  • To discuss technical issues. For wiki software bug reports, use Bugzilla.

  • To discuss ideas before proposing them to the community and attempt to find solutions to issues.
  • To post messages that do not fit into any other category.
