This evening I have logged in and found some news on the site TeX.SE, for example on the explanations for closure of the questions. I also saw a new screen regarding the reopening of the questions previously marked with on hold.

What are others news on TeX.SE?

  • @StefanKottwitz What is this problem that everyone is talking about between stackexchange and the community? I didn't understand anything, is there a short, simple and clear summary?

  • @HenriMenke Thank you, there was a difference about gender pronouns. In other words, who is for and who is against in this story?

    @AndréC Why don't you just click the footnotes on Wikipedia?

  • @HenriMenke I did, but all these links are really very slow to read and understand. Licensing stories are complicated just like gender stories.... That is why I am looking for a summary, if there is one, of course, in order to get a general idea of the problem, even if it means reading each link more precisely.

    @AndréC tl;dr: SE has a new CEO (Joel has left) and is focussing on SO and making money. Meta has become a nuisance for the company (which now has a roadmap they are not discussing) and the other communities are not important.

Previously, different sites within the network may have had their own code base, even if it were subtle. Changes like this seem to bring sites like ours in-line with the rest of the network. This promotes consistency across sites and is far better for site improvements.

Most changes to the network are posted here: Recent feature changes to Stack Exchange
