We need to specify who will be category moderators, in the new-category 
proposal.


Who would like to be? Come to think of it, who are the mailing list admins?

Sounds like a good idea.

If you enable mailing list mode in your profile, you will get emailed 
all messages and can reply to them by email too.  What you can't yet 
do is to create a new thread by email - to do that you'll need to go 
to e.g. https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/help-and-support/7 and 
click "new topic".

Australia category now?

How do we get a category we can interact with through email? I haven't used

I wouldn't expect much traffic till the existing forum content has been 
migrated, currently scheduled for the end of the month. That should then 
give some slightly more definite structure to things than there is now.

It feels like a pretty good site, I check the headlines most days, and 
I think one advantage is being able to get a feel for what's being 
discussed elsewhere. Also to have location-specific discussions that 
benefit either from the input of people elsewhere or to let other 
people know how one place is doing things.


I don't like the notification system that much, but part of that is I 
think that the ratio of meta posts to real topical ones is quite large 
at the moment. It is decreasing though, as more people take part.

It's going to replace the old forum, including the users:

subforum.

I'm not sure if we should ask for an Australia category to be
created on the new site. Probably not worth it until there's some
amount of content relating to Australia.

It's growing in use, I think (not with Australia-specific discussion).

It feels like a pretty good site, I check the headlines most days, and I
