Very glad to see this community here. Does it welcome posts also about other TeX flavours such as XeTeX or LuaTeX etc? (Maybe this can be explained explicitly in the sidebar?)

I certainly hope so. Especially since the LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX engines are still compiling LaTeX code, and you can't have LaTeX without the underlying TeX.

Sure, why not.

I kind of assumed that LaTeX meant the LaTeX format only, so I created [email protected], but no one posts there but me so... I'd rather be in a community where things are discussed. I suspect that most people use LaTeX, and very few use plain.

It was theorized that fragmented communities would converge, and this seems like a good place. Still, the name is LaTeX, so maybe it is only about LaTeX, I don't know.
