[labnetwork] StackExchange for Microfab?

[Martin, Michael]

I love this idea.  Sometime ago, I tried to start a FB group for microfabrication related issues but obviously didn't go anywhere.  At one point we had a separate list serv for microfab questions and it was actually pretty helpful.

What do you all think about starting a StackExchange Q&A site for microfabrication?

There isn’t really a relevant site for this yet:
https://stackexchange.com/sites
https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/315710/619986

It could possibly combine the ResearchGate and Lab Network process questions onto a single location - to help grad students and researchers find faster answers/learning.
Maybe it would work for equipment repair as well, but not sure.  Certainly would not be the place for lab-operations questions though.
