    I'm assuming C#, VB, C++ and other languages are suitable for any questions related to WinForms? Marc

      Already forums for them as there is for database. Could it be this forum is for design issues surrounding WinForms? Could end up with overlapping issues.

        Of course. I would like to see questions regarding the language on the language forums, questions regarding a .NET type or the CLR in the .NET forum and so on.

          It's going to be hard to ask questions that don't go into code/language related topics as well, so I think we will see a mixture of languages. This, I believe, is what Marc was asking about.

            Inevitably. I suspect that most windows forms questions will still end up in the VB/C# forums, as most people don't know what they are asking ( just like 80% of posts in the C++/CLI forum are off topic ). I guess that means by the time a question gets here, it's bound to be an interesting one :-)

              Shouldn't the phrase be "language indifferent"? "language agnostic" would mean that the forum doesn't know whether programming languages exist. ;)

                I suspect it means that it doesn't care one way or the other.

                  One of the definitions of agnostic is: "uncertain of all claims to knowledge" and you'll see the term used in computereze fairly frequently, for example: "but thanks to the Mono project it's virtually platform-agnostic." or: "Yes, the person who started the Rails project is a MySQL fan... but Rails is database agnostic. " (both quotes taken from the web) Marc
