How does one request the creation of a new group on DU?

What is the preferred process? Should the request be made here, or in Ask the Admins? Are there ground rules I should review first? Once a request is made, what are the responsibilities of those who made the request?

Any/all help is appreciated...

Usually skinner says post thread in gd to see if people are interested. hrmjustin Nov 2014 #1

As was said, I would post a thread in either a forum or a group cbayer Nov 2014 #2

(or both) asking who is interested. If you get enough support, then take it to ATA. Skinner seems to be pretty lenient in starting new groups on DU3.

He will want an SOP and probably some guidance on where you would want it to live.

Good luck!
