Hi Graphics Programming enthusiasts !

This is a reminder that the Stack Exchange site proposition for Computer Graphics entered its Private Beta stage recently:
http://computergraphics.stackexchange.com

I think one of the objectives of the Private Beta is to evaluate if there is enough interest in the subject, to later promote it to a "full-size" Stack Exchange site.

If like me you also appreciate the style of questions/answers posts of the Stack Exchange sites, I encourage you to visit the link above. I also encourage you to try to ask or answer to many questions !
The site should be an excellent complement to this forum.

I am not sure if it is easy to sign up for the site during the Private Beta phase, however developers such as Nathan Reed seem to be offering invitations:

By the way I will send you invites too if you ask me !

I remember someone else tried this a while back. It eventually failed due to too few people being active (even though it seemed active enough to me). I'm guessing this is not the same one? Or is it?

Yes there was an other tentative about one year ago that was closed by Stack Exchange administrators because the traffic statistics were considered too low.

However the requirement have changed since, as stated in this conversation:
http://meta.computergraphics.stackexchange.com/questions/48/how-do-we-improve-the-question-rate

We will make it work this time !
