Unfortunately, the Open Thread is rather difficult to find. You must know it exists, because it quickly gets lost among the new articles—at least a third of which should be better placed in the Open Thread. So the problem makes itself worse. Unless someone reminds other people to use it… which always feels like starting a conflict with the author; and there are not even obvious guidelines. So thanks for not getting offended.
