A chat session about the direction of Buddhism SE - Anyone interested?

We are changing a lot as a site and I think it's fair to say that a number of users have concerns. Just in the way of a concrete suggestion - what about a chat room and a scheduled time span (perhaps over a weekend) where we can get together as a community and voice these concerns and perhaps focus our efforts in making this site a broad welcoming community (assuming that's what we want to be).

Anyone interested?


I think there is a reasonable consensus that an ongoing chat session about the site is a good idea. Here's what the live issues are for me but obviously all issues are up for discussion

  1. Is our question policy too permissive. Should we be closing more questions down as opinion based, too broad etc...

  2. Are comments being (mis)used as debates

  3. Are we becoming less respectful of other's views. Is that an issue?

Anyway hope to see you in chat
