'Shindig'
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!
Pi months! Pi months!
Only after months of Pi
Let the digits be our cry

Sorry, sorry.
As for real content, I'm actually intrigued by Plei's 6 months for thread requests, 3 months for evertyhing else, but I wonder what else we'll be voting on, other than thread creation.
but I wonder what else we'll be voting on, other than thread creation.
Er, thread uncreation (When is it time to end a thread?), thread reorganization (Should X and Y be combined into one thread?) both come to mind, official banning procedures (if we decide to codify them). So I can think of a few other things.

Thanks Burrell, I thought there might be things like that, but I just wasn't coming up with any. I have perhaps not had enough caffeine yet this morning.

Thanks Jon. (whoops)

I like this too. Is that a bad thing?

Wimp! I haven't had ANY caffeine!
Plei's 6 months for thread requests, 3 months for evertyhing else
Me no like. Too complicated. One rule for everything. If we need to get bendy about the rules later, we can.
I'm with Burrell. One time limit is enough.
The reason I was in favor of setting up this system is so that topics don't keep getting raised every few months. I don't see why thread requests are different from other issues. But maybe I'm seeing the issue through my six-months-is-the-only-true-answer tinted glasses.
I agree with Burrell. It's too complicated. One period of time for everything is cleaner and easier.
One rule for everything
Yeah, one rule to ring them all.
Sorry.
fwiw, I vote six. Go six. Choose six.
And I agree that in the case of truly extraordinary circumstances (which we can't plan for or hypothesise at this point, but will recognise if they smack us in the face with a wet fish) then we can address it as it arises.
