I see nothing wrong with a sandbox, particularly since I think sometimes seeing code is a better way to make spark discussion than trying to discuss everything up front. In order to facilitate contribution and individual communication styles, and to promote more contributions in general, I think this is a good step.<br>

I think it is a good idea. Discussions can and should take place, but<br>
IMO an opend sandbox would be a good place to stage code for new<br>
