Rationale:
- Community would be the lively place for discussions related to anything not done anywhere, bringing together the larger Discourse community, including wikis, general discussion (#agora), site feedback, praise and comparison with other software, but also discussion about community management and the marketplace.
- #news-events would be for normal CDCK communication
- #help would be to get support
- #integrate would be to discuss specific integrations
- Documentation would host the official knowledge base
- #contribute would host all the development process
- #customize would host all that makes each Discourse instance a special community, including data reporting and exploration.
When someone new comes, they would either go to the (official) documentation, or to the community discussions…
I would suggest a #welcome tag pointing to a handful of introduction topics to navigate easily and onboard newcomers, e.g., for going from tl0 to tl1, grasping the mood and areas.
Probably the documentation should have a prominent start with The Documentation System tags: tutorial, explanation, how-to, reference.
Community Management could be called Community Building instead… I don’t like “Community Success” for some unclear reason.
