This really isn't a policy change, but we're going to keep users updated anyway.
As some of you may have noticed, we have a little bit of a new layout. We're rearranging some forums that had accumulated over the years for better organization.
Development Discussion - This has been moved to the same subforum group as General, Support, Hardware, etc. It's important to note that the Development forum is not a place to ask for feature requests. It's there for people to discuss the technical side of Dolphin, such as programming. Most of this talk happens on IRC, however, so those interested in helping or changing Dolphin should hop onto #dolphin-dev on irc.freenode.net.
HD Texture Projects - This has been moved to Game Modifications.
Cheats, Hacks, & Game Patches - This used to be Code Patches, but it's now its own forum for various game modifications. The previous Code Patches forum was intended for patching Dolphin's code to fix issues. This was waaaay before Dolphin had moved to Git and Github, and waaaay before the buildbot and Pull Requests. Needless to say, those posts are not relevant any more, but they have been preserved in a new archived forum called Dolphin Patches.
It's important to note that the Cheats, Hacks, & Game Patches forum is not the place to request cheats or mods. Don't expect people to make things for you. Asking if a specific cheat/patch already exists is fine, as is asking for more information or help if you want to create your own stuff. But asking others to create something for you will get your thread closed. Read the posting guidelines for further clarification.
