For 1, we have that in the category selection. However, for Winforms, we don't have it labeled like that but under Windows forms. Should we change Windows forms category to Winforms?

For 2, I think some categories should be dropped with a better organization such as in VFP forum. In VFP forum, we have the categories organized by topics and this is what we should have in here as well. We do however have an entry for specific version since the last few versions which are general and mostly used when the version is just released. But, the concept in general is to have topics. I would suggest the same thing for the .NET forum. Basically, all the .NET languages could be a pivot table for selection, as this point proposes it but I would remove categories which wouldn't apply anymore.

So, by doing this Migrating to ASP.NET, Migrating to C# and Migrating to VB.NET would become Migration where the specific language would then be on the user's selection. VB.NET in general would then become obsolete so is VS.NET in general I guess. I would probably remove as well ASP.NET in general. I would replace ASP.NET mobile with Mobile. Anything else or additional comments in that area are welcome.

For 3, it is very good. I need all the choices however.

For 4, I wouldn't bother about it. Now that we have implemented the Adding Code help at the bottom of a message when creating it, this has helped to resolve a lot of issues when posting code. It is easy to understand the concept of adding code and how to add it. I wouldn't do anything for that.

For 5, it is also very good. I just need all the choices. This should be as proposed by Jim for VFP forum. Please, synchronize all the available choices so we can share the same table.

For 6 and 7, I'm not ready to approve that. Point 6 falls in about the same as Point 4. Point 7, we don't allow upload at this time.
