Re: [Nuke-users] Nuke Stack Exchange Proposal

Thu, 25 Feb 2016 14:15:06 -0800 

I have to agree with Frank as well. I love StackExchange, and keep an eye on 
the 'nuke' tag on StackOverflow (among other things), but I don't think the 
community would really benefit from being any more fragmented, even if it would 
be adding a really nice platform to the mix. People already post the same 
questions to both StackOverflow and the Foundry forums on occasion, which means 
answering them sometimes turns out to be a waste of time.

I also have to agree that many people's use of the community resources don't 
align with the StackExchange ethos of doing your due diligence before asking 
questions. Rather we get the same basic questions repeated (and answered) over 
and over again because people can't be bothered to do a little leg work.

I think it would be great if the existing community forums were migrated to 
StackExchange, but I'm not very optimistic about something like that happening.

I love StackExchange and it's self monitored nature and set of rules ensure 
high quality questions and answers, and an easy way to find the answer to a 
question that has already been posed.
People that are too lazy to do their own homework/research and expect spoon 
feeding from others instead will have a hard time there, which helps improve 
the quality of questions/answers immensely.
StackExchange is far superior to the current forums/mailing lists for sure.

However, my main concern would be to have another parallel community to the 
user list and forum, and thus dilute information flow further (the reason I 
refused to have a forum on Nukepedia even though I was badgered plenty of times 
to do it).

Ideally I'd love a stack exchange type of quality in the official forum, but 
right now we are already struggling with having a mailing list and forum 
parallel to each other, with only the forum being the "official" channel, which 
has already caused loss of information along the way.

So, ironically, I'd recommend posting this on the "official" forum rather than 
the mailing list, to see if the Foundry have thoughts on this as well.
It would be awesome to reconcile the community channels into one StackExchange 
format.

Thanks for bringing this up!

  Hey Nuke list,

  There is an effort going on to get a Stack Exchange site off the ground for 
Nuke. If you are familiar with Stack Exchange you might agree it is a pretty 
good fit for a home of technical questions (and answers) and could be a great 
resource for nuke in the future to complement those already out there.

  Those not familiar may wish to check out some of the other sites in the stack 
exchange network to get a feel for what they are.

  Some examples:

  http://stackoverflow.com/


  http://video.stackexchange.com/


  http://blender.stackexchange.com/


  http://math.stackexchange.com/


  Read the stack exchange wikipedia:

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_Exchange

  Right now the proposal is in definition stage and needs some people to follow 
the proposal as well as join in shaping questions and voting. The whole thing 
needs an active community to get it going. If you think this might be useful 
jump in and get involved and pass it on! 

  No one person owns or controls this site, the types of questions and topics 
it covers is up to the community. It can cover all levels, beginner to 
advanced. It is completely open to mould the types of questions that are 
relevant. C++ Ndk? Compositing technique? Python API? Colour questions etc.

  Its a cross between reddit, wikipedia and forums.

  The FAQ is worth reading because the process is a little confusing. 

  http://area51.stackexchange.com/faq


  The site is not real at the moment, the questions are hypothetical. It is a 
proposal, in definition stage where the questions and votes that are made now 
shape the general direction of the site, and none of the questions should 
actually be answered just yet. However, if enough people think this might have 
value and get involved we can jump to interesting part of answering the 
questions.

  And the site is here.

  Visual effects compositing using the foundry nuke.

  Yes, I think the name is terrible as well. Sign up and start a discussion to 
get it changed.

  aaron.
