I'd like to create a space where people who are interested in contributing to Freebase in a broad sense can come together to discuss issues.  Think of this as a meta-interest-group; there's no real topic other than "Freebase, and how to contribute to it".  If you're the sort of person who enjoys discussing processes, or are interested in helping out with some of the work of supporting the Freebase community (through documentation, gardening, guiding new contributors, etc) then please join up!

 Some topics I'd like to discuss:

  •  Freebase contribution guidelines -- they're due for a rewrite, and I'd like us to collaborate on it
  • Freebase FAQs -- suggest updates
  • Featured topics/domains/users/etc -- recommend them!

If you are interested in these kinds of discussions, please join this group by adding yourself to the "members" list below, and either "watch" the discussions on this group, or subscribe to the RSS feed for them.
