Another handy feature, it the forum function. However, we might want to change the labels from Helpdesk and Watercooler to something else. Ideas??

I'm currently thinking of the following:

• The Book
• Conventions
• Relevant New Items
• Off Topic(or whatever else makes sense)

This sounds good, though I'm not sure a section on conventions is relevant yet. We certainly do need to think about convention presentations -I've added items relating to that under the Foundation section- but currently have no people interested in working the space convention circuit and no media for them. This might be more relevant to the luf-team forum, which is where we would most likely recruit people for this.

I think we can keep the Watercooler as General Discussion.

I would also add an Art & Graphics category. Some people have offered artwork assistance in luf-team but they aren't stepping up to discuss doing anything specific. Art is critical to this project, but is likely to be perpetually problematic. I just can't produce much with any speed by myself.

Okay, I will be resetting the forums as

• The Book
• Art & Graphics
• Relevant News Items
• Watercooler

First off, let me apologize if I am doing this incorrectly, first time trying to have a discussion in a wiki.....I had a question, where would one submit any potential suggestions? For example, I would suggest co-ordinating or at least utilizing some of the tech from the Open Source Ecology project, specifically the Global Village Construction set. This is the concept of the GVCS from their website (http://opensourceecology.org/gvcs.php)

"The Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) is an open technological platform that allows for the easy fabrication of the 50 different Industrial Machines that it takes to build a small civilization with modern comforts." Seems to me that it would be easiest to adapt the machines from an easy-to-build, already-mapped-out schematic to be suitable for underwater (for Aquarius) and then exo-atmospheric use.
