Proposal: forums policy change on promotional posts

I've been asked privately to discuss the relationship between this new Community category and the existing Related Projects category.

The purpose of Related Projects is to foster the Swift open-source community by allowing projects to host discussion forums here rather than managing their own server or mailing list. Each project gets its own sub-category. It's not really intended or suitable for one-off announcements of projects; likewise, Community isn't really intended or suitable for long-running discussions of goals, schedules, and work coordination. Projects that maintain forums in Related Projects would still be welcome to post announcements of major milestones in Community.
