So? What about it?

To get started now, how about an IRC channel then.

How do we get the administrators to implement it?

I think this is a great idea. It would simply things very much.

I fifth.  Finding announcements is getting difficult with so much traffic.  A dedicated section would be great.

Major new pieces of software or services of interest to all BitCoiners are currently announced in the discuss or development sections. It's easy to miss them there and they get drowned out by other chat.

A section specifically for announcements of global interest would be good. Examples of things that'd be appropriate:

Most days now there are north of 2,000 posts each.

So +1, or I vote YEA, or "Bump", or pretty please, or is bounty needed, or ?

We could have a combined announcements/introductions board, since there have been calls for the latter as well.

I like the idea. It's already quite difficult to follow the forum, better categories like these could help.

RSS per category would be good too.

A section specifically for announcements of global interest would be good. Examples of things that'd be appropriate:

  • New exchanges, credit card gateways etc.
  • New versions of BitCoin or alternative implementations
  • New projects built on BitCoin technology

New products/services that are just sold in BitCoins would stay in the marketplace section or Trade wiki page.
