<p>An "Operations Research and Analytics" site for Stack Exchange has been proposed <a href="https://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/121892/operations-research-and-analytics">https://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/121892/operations-research-and-analytics</a>, and is now in need of enough committers to get to beta.  </p>

<p>There was an OR Exchange site. But it has been permanently shut down due to SPAMMING. The proposed new site is viewed as a replacement for that.</p>

<p>It appears the long pole in the tent is getting enough committers who have 200+ on other SE sites. Cross Validated has enough overlap with the proposed site that I would think many of its active users would be interested in the proposed new site. Among other things, the proposed new site could become a home for all optimization questions, of which there are many on Cross Validated, not all of them even involving probability or statistics.</p>

<p>Is there any way to solicit among Cross Validated users or advertise there?</p>

<p><strong>EDIT:</strong> 
The Stack Exchange site, "Operations Research" entered private Beta yesterday at <a href="https://or.stackexchange.com/">https://or.stackexchange.com/</a>. It should go to public beta in one to two weeks.</p>

<p>Until it goes public, I believe only users who have already "committed" to it while in proposal (commitment) phase can actively contribute to the site.</p>
