Meh, this change is probably not needed.

I dont see the point in " Minetest forks, patches and projects". patches and projects go into "Unofficial engine development" and forks go into "Minetest-related projects".

There are quite lot of things in related projects that are not forks, and forks may deserve their own space with patches.

I reckon Unofficial engine development should be more like Modding General, with resources and ideas etc.

Minetest forks, patches and projects is one of the lesser needed changes, of course.

We have "Feature Discussion" and "General Discussion" were ideas are discussed.
"Unofficial engine development" is for actual development of code that isnt merged upstream. It shouldnt be abused to discuss ideas.
