The wiki is not a good venue to discuss things. If you want to chat
with somebody about some random idea you had, use the mailing lists or
IRC, or perhaps go to a conference (there are plenty all over the world)
where you can discuss in the hallway track.

That sounds way too large a topic for a single wiki page. If you're
feeling prolific, one idea is to write a few of those pages in the wiki
and create a wiki category that links to them all. Or perhaps you can
write a blog (and then you can create a wiki page with links to the blog
posts, or just copy the contents over).

The wiki is not expected to be perfect all the time. If links are
missing, feel free to contribute by editing the page.
