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.

### Workshop
A [comment thread on the Sci Spec post](https://scientific-speculation.codidact.com/comments/thread/11478) points out that "workshop" has been used in some discussions to refer to two different things:
- a sandbox where you develop a question before posting it in Q&A
- developing broader ideas or compiling resources, such as with a wiki ("exploration" posts)
When I proposed the Workshop category here I was thinking of the former. Does the community want to support both concepts? Together or in separate categories? I think there's solid support for the sandbox idea; what about the other?
