Hey Pete,

I killed the group, and all it's posts.

I hear that the community group might be the place for me.

Cheers! Ricco

>>  Hey drupal group moderator dudes and dudeettes,
>>
>>  I joined the drupal doc group mailing list and got some great feedback
>> on
>>  a post I posted there. Even got some data from a poll;
>>  http://groups.drupal.org/node/10393
>>
>>  What I would like to move forward with now is to figure out what I can
>>  change the group that I submitted I originally called "Wiki"Help" to,
>> so
>>  that I can get the group approved.
>>
>>  Here are six names in the order that I would prefer them
>>
>>  1) pericope
>>  2) elements of style
>>  3) apologetics
>>  4) triangles
>>  5) philosophy
>>  6) free association
>>
>>  I would prefer #1 over #6, so if you could consider them in the order
>>  listed, and approve the first one of them that is acceptable, and let
>> me
>>  know. I will then make the change to the group page, and we can be off
>> and
>>  running.
>>
>>  The group I would like to start will be a general purpose group where
>>  people can post things on a variety of topics. Like;
>>
>>  "I worked on a drupal site where I created three groups, one for
>> republics
>>  only, one for democrats only and one for both and here is how I used to
>> OG
>>  user roles to get conversations going".
>>
>>  or; "I worked on a piece of code that allowed me to show broken links
>> on a
>>  book page in a different color than links that had followable links,
>> and
>>  here is how I did it"
>>
>>  or "here is how I see the difference in world views as to whether one
>>  should use taxonomy vs groups to create sets on a drupal site"
>>
>>  or "how can I use a drupal site to raise money to start a food shelter
>> in
>>  my area?"
>>
>>  or; "this is why nobody should ever use a captcha field on a story
>> page"
>>
>>  I am looking to attract interesting people that have done interesting
>>  things with drupal sites. Hopefully well read people that can write
>> with
>>  wit and style, that are as interested in the reason they built the
>> site,
>>  as to the cool drupal techniques they used to build the site, and are
>> able
>>  and passionate about telling their story to others. A sort of place for
>>  the gathering of renaissance  men and women, that are both competent
>>  coders or respect competent coders and appreciate novel things done
>> with
>>  drupal, while being well read enough to write well as well as set up
>> and
>>  change drupal code.
>>
>>  Like I said, if you can let me know which of those names are
>> acceptable, I
>>  will change the group page, and hopefully can start meeting some of
>> these
>>  people once others can also come across the group via list of drupal
>>  groups.
