There is no such provision. I share goalie's view that many questions are unanswered. Yet in this case the only way to get solid answers to most of them is to try it and see. Therefore I have (finally!) decided to vote Yes on this proposal.

However if this forum underperforms over the next 6 to 8 months I will almost certainly ask for a vote on removing it. That's the only way we can do a trial of a new forum. I hope both sides see this as a reasonable approach.

Creating this forum is an excellent idea IMO.

BTW - if someone is going to the forum for the first time I would encourage them to click on the thread saying if know of any threads. hhoope01 is doing a good job of locating threads that might find new homes in this forum (see that thread), but he's also looking for suggestions. He's also going to create a FAQ for the forum.

Cheers.
