[Koha] A Koha area on Stack Exchange?

[Magnus Enger]

Dear Community!

There has been talk about the email lists not serving us optimaly any
longer. Liz Rea has taken some steps to check out Stack Exchange as an
alternative:

http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/60300/koha-open-source-library-software?referrer=Owta03DIt70A0SJwD4uepg2

However, Stack Exchange does have a vetting system for new
areas/topics before they are added to the site. The Koha topic needs
two things to move on to the next stage:

- 60 followers
- 40 sample questions with at least 10 points/upvotes

Each user can propose 5 sample questions and give 5 upvotes.

Currently there are 8 followers, 11 example questions and the most
voted question has 3 votes.

So if you think Stack Exchange is an interesting site as an
alternative to the mailing lists, you need to:

- Sign up for Stack Exchange, if you are not already a member
- Follow the Koha topic/site
- Propose some example questions (we need at least 40)
- Vote on example questions (we need at least 40 questions with a
score of at least 10)

...at least that is my understanding of how things work. Corrections
are welcome!

Best regards,
Magnus Enger
