Hello all,
I think it is about time this forum gets a good cleanup. I'm going to be deleting the unused parts and merging the underused areas.
Llikely to be deleted: Vivifire Code Submissions, Other Languages, WMLiberty Features and Bugs, Trusted Members Center, Sandbox
Likely to be merged:- General Discussions + Off-topic Discussions
- Windows Registry + Extreme Programming
- Internationalization + Accessibility Issues & Critiques
Comments and suggestions for new names are welcome. _________________ Brent |

I believe that the umbrella terms for internationalization and accessibility are "inclusive design" or "universal design". I'd probably go with one of those. _________________ Brent |

Maybe WR + EP becomes "Area 5+1"? Or would that be too cliched? _________________ Brent |

Area 5+1, just thought abut this once more, may be Area 5T1.
Area 5+1 ... area five-plus-one
Area 5T1 ... area five-tee-one
Area 51 ... area fifty-one
So the second would be more pronounced like the last one.
It had to sink in a bit _________________ Stefan

The point of using 5+1 is that 5+1=6, as in Bay Six.
Native English speakers would likely be perplexed by 5T being equated to 50 -- in pseudo-IPA: ['faIv'ti:] and ['fIfti], respectively. _________________ Brent |

Your explanation allows the reader to put any meaning into the caption, which seems to be good.
Merry Christmas. _________________ Stefan
