It can work both ways. By no means do I think we should discourage discussion within the assignment thread itself and limit it to submissions only, but, at least my thought, is that having a dedicated thread might make it more conducive to discussing the assignment. In the poll on the assignment thread, a majority voted for this companion thread, so this is the first time trying it out. I think it is worth a try. Some assignments may prompt more discussion. Others, less.
