Cory, are you listening?

Banners:
Maybe the countdown banners should be added to the pages in Archives.
I don't see much need for such a Category, currently.

Governance:
I doubt there's enough to say on Governance

Documentation/Guidelines:
I intent to collect both technical documentation and guidelines in
Documentation and will only consider creating a separate Guidelines if
it gets too crowded.


Interesting proposal to get rid of Incoming. But you will have the same
problem as we have now, with a theme starting on a release-specific
page, later needing a page elsewhere if the development spans across
several releases.

There's a whole lot of stuff in Incoming, so it would be a lot of work.
I'll let other chime in here.

OfficialArtwork doesn't belong in Documentation, because it just
isn't ;)
It's kinda the counter-part to Incoming.

If we pick up meetings again, date and agenda of the next one should be
 directly on the Meetings page. Previous can go to a single or several
 sub-pages, but it's moot to discuss this as long as no meetings happen.

Not worth it as long there isn't even a 2nd icon theme and it should be
a minimum of 3 to not look silly.


I see you keep editing

so people should have a look.
