Can we have a topc suggestions forum?

Can we have a topic suggestions forum?

I think this will benefit us as I get the distinct feeling from this site that is revolves mainly around Linux. As this is understandable, it would be nice to have a forum where tutorials can be posted.

What do you think?

Thanks

I can't say I understand where you're getting at, this general area is for pretty much anything.
If you ellaborate a bit, I might think about it some more.

I like the idea of a tutorials forum, or even a wiki. Instead of answering the same questions over and over again, one of the users writes a complete tutorial and links there.

I think we could have tutorials on anything and everything, from Linux, to Windows "How to's", and from IRC Scripting to C++ coding. I had a dream for my website to be a place where you can access virtually anything. By doing this you should be guaranteed more visiters and more time spent on your site as there is hardly any need to go onto another site. Tutorials would also be good to refer people to if needed when certain questions are asked, rather than reinventing the wheel...

Speaking of tutorials, I have a few online tutorials to help people with scripting/coding of most kinds (not written by me). If you would like to look at them go to [url]tutorials.thefuzzyone.co.uk[/url] You may find this is a good place to refer people to who are learning or want to learn a particular programming language. By the way, this is NOT spamming or promoting my site as I get nothing out of this. I just wanted to give something to people that would help them out. The tutorials alone take up almost 500MB Shocked

That's good. But what's the topic of the wiki and which wiki-software do you use? Also under which license will the wiki-content be?
