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.

- Isn't the topic more like a mixture of Software-Development, Electrical Engineering and Biology? Maybe the Artificial Life topics can be split and merged with the broader scientific topics like:
- Software (-Development or -Engineering) - would be something like the game of life or maybe spreading patterns of viruses across networks etc.
- Hardware (Electrical Engineering) - would be something like small robots acting as swarms, communicating and cooperate on certain tasks
- Biology (to be created?) - technically "cloning" or more generally everything that was cultivated in a petri dish once, bred or genetically altered somehow
Having those topics under a "(Artificial) Life" category seems stretched to me.

- EDIT: trichoplax' feedback in the comments convinced me, that the topic IS a cross-over and should be treated as such (not split up).
