==Policies==
The forum will operate under these policies:
* Relevant wiki policies of civility, no personal attacks, not disrupting to make a point...
* The policy of [[a:rigor|rigor]] is less strictly applied, as the forum is a place for questions and wild ideas. Though if someone is promoting perpetual motion machines or other baseless claims, we may gently point to this policy and explain why we don't give attention to such things.
* All posts are released under the GFD License, so that relevant content can be easily adapted for use in the wiki (or elsewhere) with attribution. (Attribution in the edit summary is enough when contributing to the wiki? This way it's equivalent in attribution terms to the person posting it directly to the wiki.)
