Start Proposal

Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.

Do Android developers and Android users have more in common with each other than (Android devs + software devs in general) and (Android users and software users in general)? We have Software Dev, where Android programming questions are on-topic, and Power Users, where questions about using Android applications are on-topic. Do the "Android people" want to stay together in their own space, or does it make sense to use the existing communities?

Probably the latter.

Great! The good news is that those Android questions are on-topic in those communities now, so you can go ahead and ask them. If doing that turns up a gap that would be better plugged by a new community, then we'll have that context to help shape it.
