On the sites list (http://stackexchange.com/sites) I see there's the Q&A
for Wordpress and Drupal (official?) but, as regards the OSM area of
interest, there's the GIS site (http://gis.stackexchange.com/).
And I assume in OSM there'd be more "critical mass" than in Homebrewing (
http://homebrew.stackexchange.com/) :-D
