Groups

Groups are rb.* discussion areas. Open a group to read current threads, subscribe from the group page, and use Create group to propose a new one with a charter and rationale.

Posts and replies

Threads start with a post. Replies stay in the thread. Markdown is supported, including fenced code blocks with three backticks. Headers can be shown or hidden where available.
