Hey guys!
This is pretty exciting stuff and I know we're all bursting with creative juices right now. To give yellow-shirted-chekov with setting up this ever-so-slightly mammoth task here, I was wondering if it might make things a smidge easier if we suggested different boards to have on-site so that we can navigate (heh) easily and categorise ideas. So here's a couple ideas that I had and pleeeeeease chip in/improve/suggest alternatives for them. This has to be a team effort!
- The general board: It seems like this here would be a good place for welcoming people - ie. people new to the initiative effort could introduce themselves and their ideas/talents so that we could get to know them and point them in the direction of boards that might interest them. It'd also serve as a good off topic area - we can't be switched on 100% of the time
- Announcements: I think it'd be a good idea solely for official announcements being made by staff (that is, yellow-shirted-chekov) that could be stickied so everyone would know to check them out. That could keep everyone up to date on ideas we had decided to pursue as well as eventually when we start making progress!
- There was also an idea by tumblr user live-long-and-bite-me (you can see the ongoing discussion here and here) to do with community projects and the like... We could go into greater detail as we brainstormed that at a later date but it's a fabulous idea from LLABM and I think it's worth giving it a board of it's own because it's something that would work alongside and co-operate with starfleet's main body.[edit: starfleetcommandhq made an interesting suggestion here of calling this the Federation Outreach]
- As for the rest of the boards... That really depends on how in depth we want to go. We could have a board dedicated to brainstorming in general, or ones dedicated to different aspects of starfleet. What do you guys think?
