Consultation Notification

Further to extensive discussions in Styx and further discussions with the crew, we would like to propose a change to the structure of the forums.
We have set up a consultation space on The 8th Day, which will be hosted by @Doublethink & @Alan Cresswell . The opening post there outlines the proposal and we invite the comments and suggestions of registered shipmates. The consultation will be open for seven days, we will then consider your comments and post a summary response after Easter - there will then be an opportunity for further comments before a final outcome is posted.
To be constructive and useful, and so that as many shipmates as possible feel able to contribute, it will be important that those participating do so in good faith with mutual respect; the space will be hosted on that basis.

"We are grateful for everyone's contributions. This thread will close at 9pm UK time - about 4 hours from now.
Then there will be a break whilst we read and consider everyone's points - then we will open another thread here with a response - I estimate that will be in about two weeks time, but there may be some flex in that because there is a lot to think about."

It was clear that there is not the support within the SoF community for merging the two forums - for a variety of differing reasons. We will not be merging the forums.
We are aware that it would be helpful to make a response to some of the issues raised - and we still hope to do this. We may combine this with discussion of the current functioning of Styx, as the original proposal was made to address issues that are raised recurrently on this forum.
