#### Why should people use this category? What is it for?

This category is for everyone involved with a [Working Group](https://sustainoss.org/working-groups/). While you can use GitHub issues we believe this is a better tool for discussions that are not code related.

#### How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?

This will help organize the 5 working groups as well as the 16 that are incubating.
