For sake of completeness, that also includes the same sort of topics for Meditations, too, right? The difference being the type of discourse, as in questions in SoPW and answers/musings/RFCs or... well, meditations... in Meditations?
My first thought was "What's a good mode for coding in Perl and where can I get it?" type questions would be great for SoPW, while "Hey, I have this great .vimrc for Perl coders, take a look!" type statements and related discussion would be more a Meditations node. That is, that a question specifically would go into SoPW and a statement would go into Meditations.
I vaguely include rhetorical questions with statements, as they're really acting more as statements anyway. I'd also, personally, consider a node which consists of a statement which is providing illumination on a point (rather than asking for clarification for the poster) with a quick follow-up discussion question such as "has this been done better?" or "what do you monks think?" as a statement post, and put that in Meditations rather than SoPW. RFCs for tutorials and modules fit this statement-with-short-follow-up-question mold and are typically Meditations.
