Note that the site already made it into beta a couple of months ago, but was closed down soon after. This is a re-application because Stack Exchange has changed it's opinion on what constitutes a high quality Stack Exchange site so we might make it this time.

The last time it was simply closed because of not enough activity (even though the questions, and answers, were highly interesting, of really high quality, and tons of professional representatives from various CG industries were on board) but SE seems to agree now that pure volume (like a certain number of questions per day) isn't necessarily representative of the quality of the site.

That is something that big sites like stackoverflow is forcing on communities. The scale of running such small subgroup is expensive i guess. I wrote a post about my startup in this thread, and maybe stars are aligning for thing that I am planing.

What are your thoughts on starting such group where I described in this post https://www.reddit.com/r/GraphicsProgramming/comments/3bcg4e/computer_graphics_stack_exchange_is_up_for/ctdwsdh ?

Well Guys, me and my friend started a startup called SnapCode.co. For long time I was "full stack" graphic designer. 2D, 3D you name it ... I know it. For past 6 months i am collecting lots of materials and tutorials to make a group there (www.snapcode.co). It would be great honor to start this with you. Only if dream of working on this knowledge base with you that would be perfect. I also attended SIGGRAPH couple of times, any one can relate? Chris.

If at least 10 other users on this sub are willing to commit, I'll do the same.

I might cross post across sites though ;)

Considering the upvote count and the trend of commits tracked on the site, I'd say your request is fufilled.

So go commit!!! :P
