Have you tried the Open Beta of the dKos version 5 software? Do you love it? Do you hate it? Would you care to vent? How about that new logo, huh? And what happened to Flagman?

Below the fold is a set of links to DK5 Diaries and Helpdesk discussions, and below that you will find your contributions. Read More

Part of your profile is a display of badge icons, which seem not to be explained in any organized way in the FAQ or Knowledge Base, or anywhere else that I can find. So here you go, to the extent that I have been able to discern by observation and diligent searching.

The badges that I have found are shown above. Below, I give you the name of each, what it does for you, if anything, and how to get one (except Beta Tester, which I hope some commenter will explain).

I have posted this in both DK4 and DK5 formats on their respective sites, and I am adding it to the draft DKOS5 Click by Click Reference Manual that I have started work on. I will announce its location on the Web and invite others to collaborate on writing it soon.

I have started a draft Reference Manual for DKos5/DK5 on Booktype, where you can join in the process. We need writers, testers, editors, and at least one graphic artist, to do a better cover. This assumes that you have used or are willing to try the DK5 Beta, of course, so that you can examine where everything is, and test how it works.

You are not required to like DK5. In fact, part of the project is to break DK5 as much as possible and complain about whatever doesn't work to further our community goal of More and Better Kossacks working toward More and Better Democrats.
