This site has spawned a huge number of successful forums in many other subjects from electronics to cooking. Now we are trying to launch a forum dedicated to Robotics. But we can't do it without your help. Stackexchange sites only come into existence when they show that there is a strong community of users who would be interested in using the site. If you would be interested in an excellent new forum for Robotics, and would like to support us in getting it off the ground, please come to our staging area: http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/40020/robotics Login / Sign up, and 'Follow' the proposal. The Robotics forum is currently in the definition phase, where we are proposing hypothetical questions, and then voting whether or not they are good questions for the site. Questions can be upvoted if you think they'll be interesting, downvoted if you think they won't be, and closed if you think they are a poor fit for the community. Propose questions you might ask or want to see answered on the site and comment and vote on those already proposed. The goal is to come up with at least 40 questions that embody the topic's scope. When at least 40 questions have a score of at least ten net votes (up minus down), then the proposal is considered "defined." For more information about how the site works, please see the FAQ: http://area51.stackexchange.com/faq Thank you for your time, -- Ugo Cupcic | Shadow Robot Company | ugo@shadowrobot.com Senior Software Engineer | 251 Liverpool Road | need a Hand? | London N1 1LX | +44 20 7700 2487 http://www.shadowrobot.com/hand/ @shadowrobot _______________________________________________ robotics-worldwide mailing list robotics-worldwide@duerer.usc.edu http://duerer.usc.edu/mailman/listinfo/robotics-worldwide
