Goal of Debug the World

The goals of debug the world are the following:

• let the world know about all the problems that are there
• let creative people think together about how to solve a problem
• let people that have solutions know that there are problems for them

Who can contribute

Debug the world is open to everyone. Anonymous editing is permitted.

What belongs here

Every important problem that concerns at least a small group of people can be discussed here. For some rules have a look at the terms of use.

Content that violates the human rights are not permitted (e.g. racist problems, solutions that call for violence).

If your problem does not match this description, you can certainly find others sites that help you solve it. Here are some pointers where you could go:

• Stackoverflow - for programming related problems
• Yahoo Answers - for advice and solutions to small problems

Discussions

The discussions for problems and solutions are organized in single pages. That means that you can freely alter the content of the disucssion page (similar to the wikipedia talk pages). Please sign comments from you with your user name.

Bugs and Security Issues

If you found a bug or a security issue, please let us know about it. I take bugs as well as security very seriously and will fix the problem as fast as possible.
