@John - No, this is good. The other startup sites will have to decide what direction they'll go, whether to merge their content with this proposal or to move to another Q&A solution. This proposal is a good one - let's make it happen! – Adam Davis Jun 17 '10 at 2:00

@John: Nah - what @Adam said. SE 1.0 sites will need to decide what to do. Perhaps one of them could choose to migrate to SE 2.0 and become the site for such a proposal. Consider my own proposal as an example to bring an SE 1.0 site into the fold: area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/1721/… – Chris W. Rea Jun 17 '10 at 2:38

Where can I get information regarding tax laws for <country name>?

A bit vague, I think - "tax laws" is a broad subject. – Wikis Jul 14 '10 at 19:35

This question does not relate to the topic of the proposal.
It was closed as part of an automated migration of off-topic to close votes on September 29, 2011.

If this were worded in a more neutral way it would be on-topic. For example, what are some successful business models for an online startup, and what are the pros/cons of each? – John Weldon Jun 22 '10 at 16:35
I think the problem with this question is that it is to broad to be answered in a non subjective way. – Janusz Jul 8 '10 at 14:48
I voted this NaGE - why? If you look at site that are in committed phase, it shows the top 5 on-topic and off-topic Questions. You could think of this as advertising for what the site is or isn't about. However, it's easy for someone browsing the site to mis-interpret that. For instance, someone might see this question and think the site isn't about online-startups, and ignore it (decide not to commit to it). – Cyclops Jul 13 '10 at 18:10

Need more info! – bugsyrocker Jul 1 '10 at 19:38
50% for 2 heebs and a bean – Aiden Bell Jul 5 '10 at 13:39
I like the question, but I'm not sure this is the place for it. - If it isn't, lets create a Q&A site that is!!! :-) – Danny Jul 8 '10 at 19:59
@bugsyrocker - assume the info is in the body of the question and not in the header (although a little more info is required to tell all the "will you invest in..." questions apart). – Danny Jul 8 '10 at 20:01
Belongs in another site: area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/12369/… – Danny Jul 9 '10 at 18:35

What should I do to help a late project meet a deadline?
added by Gordon Gustafson Jul 4 '10 at 23:13

This is more project management, not start ups in particular. – David Pfeffer Jul 8 '10 at 18:02
I'd ask this in the "Project Management" Q&A site. – Danny Jul 8 '10 at 19:58

What’s more important: releasing early or getting it right?

I like, although the inevitable answer will be "depends on your market / user's tolerances" – Aiden Bell Jul 5 '10 at 13:38

How much do you think my start-up company is worth?
added by David Pfeffer Jul 8 '10 at 18:04

How about "How to determine the value of my start-up?" instead and not a question that will lead to a guessing game. – Danny Jul 8 '10 at 19:51
