slightly earlier date suggested in comment, so we have time to discuss rule changes
  • **Defer Purim Torah**
  • This community is just getting started, its scope boundaries are not entirely set, and people are still gathering. Opinions on Purim Torah are mixed, but I don't think we need to decide now. If we have Purim Torah, we should kick it off in season, even if we decide to allow it out of season later (in its own category).
  • **I propose that we defer discussion of Purim Torah until 1 Sh'vat.** That will give us time to find our footing here and still allow time to set up PT for 5781 if we want to have it.
  • I brought it up originally, so I accept the blame for distracting us with it now. Let's focus on other things and come back to this. PT done well, which requires effort, is a lot of fun. It will still be fun in six months.

**Defer Purim Torah**

This community is just getting started, its scope boundaries are not entirely set, and people are still gathering.  Opinions on Purim Torah are mixed, but I don't think we need to decide now.  If we have Purim Torah, we should kick it off in season, even if we decide to allow it out of season later (in its own category).

**I propose that we defer discussion of Purim Torah until 1 Sh'vat.**  That will give us time to find our footing here and still allow time to set up PT for 5781 if we want to have it.

I brought it up originally, so I accept the blame for distracting us with it now.  Let's focus on other things and come back to this.  PT done well, which requires effort, is a lot of fun.  It will still be fun in six months.
