This instance is well into a second year of existence now, and while changes have happened its stable.

Thinking about longevity, i think Aussie Zone could benefit from a direction setting and issue defining annual meeting of sorts.

Issues like the large amount of dead communities and why they're left, decisions that need to be made about inactive moderators, financing (if this hangs around for a long time this might become an issue for Lodion), broader direction setting, also might be a good way to look back on the years events and assess whats happened perhaps after some time has passed.

Its structure being analogous to a companys AGM, hence the name, the thread could be locked after two days or a week, etc, and amount of questions allowed per user limited.

In saying all this, i'm not forgetting that this is Lodion and Nath's beast. But i think it could be useful to find out the broader instances thoughts or concerns, for instance if a user doesn't feel an issue warrants its own thread, an AGT could be useful for that.

And, of course, the structure would have to be thoughtfully done. It can't set up an us against them scenario in any configuration that could possibly detrimentally occur. Can't also be an agonybaints session, the rules would have to foster only productive and earnest conversation.

I don't know, I by no means have a fully fleshed out idea here. But what do people think of an AGT or something along that vein?
