I signed up for VPP to see what it's all about. Until we have an event I'm not sure if we will have any more substantive conversations.
I'm ok with it not being a sticky because it's pretty easy to find once we have an event to discuss.
(sorry for off-topic meta discussion)
Sticky threads are good for threads that have long-lasting reference value, but are mostly read-only and not a lot of people (maybe zero people) post to them, so they would fall off the first page if they were not made sticky. This thread IMHO doesn't fall into that category.
