Feedback:
* There are admins, because django itself has admins. But they are the website's admins, not specific to the forum. (so inherited admins)
* Regular members information, complaints, and etiquette should appear before moderator team information. Because more people will be regular and this is the info they will need first.
* The forum etiquette is similar to the "Ask Smart Questions" pages for the chat.
* There isn't anything about posting attachments, or videos, either moderating them (i.e. family friendly only) or if there would be limitations to posting content such as file formats (svg, png?, pdf?), amount of space quota (currently 10MB for normal users) or if certain forums will be moderated for different kinds of images/videos.
* Should animated gifs be encouraged for people explaining a problem? They can be really useful on the developer side.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Friends, As it turned out, only me and a couple of other people were interested in drafting the rules and guidelines for the new forum. So we can get more eyes on it, and possibly more professional opinions about it, I'd like to ask the community to have a look at it.
I have no background in writing such documents, so it'spurely a layperson's whack at it. I feel quite confident about the contents, based on my years of experience in Inkscape forums. But the format of the document, and possibly some of the language might need some technical advice.
So any an all comments and suggestions about the format orlanguage are very welcome.

(I've left it locked to editing, so everyone sees the samedoc, for this first review. Then I'll unlock it afterwards.)
Thank you very much, brynn
PS - I'm also posting about this in the forums.
