user52598: The Synthetic Biology Open Language is an open representational standard for encoding biological designs. As this community has been growing, it has been trying to figure out a better way than FAQs to compile ongoing Q&A expert knowledge about how to use the standard for representing designs.  
As a long-standing contributor on Academia.SE, it seems to me that Biology.SE might be a good place to start building up such a Q&A compilation, adding tags, etc.  We would only want to do so if this community would find it to be on topic.
Examples of questions that might be asked would be:

How should I represent growth media in SBOL?
In SBOL, how do you distinguish a circular plasmid from linear DNA?
How do I represent a sequence deletion in SBOL?
Do I need to include intermediate gene products like mRNA in order to express a gene regulatory relationship in SBOL?

A slightly fuller example might be:

How should I represent growth media in SBOL?
  Our lab is doing an experiment comparing growth in M9 media and LB. M9 is a mixture of several different chemicals, see:  cshprotocols.cshlp.org/content/2010/8/pdb.rec12295.short
  How do I represent that in SBOL?" 
Answer:
  The recommended best practice for representing mixtures (including media) in SBOL 2 is as a ModuleDefinition, with a FunctionalComponent for each ingredient and a Measure specifying the amount of each in the mixture. 

I believe that Biology.SE would be a better place for this than StackOverflow because the questions are more about structuring knowledge than about programming. I believe this would be a better place than Bioinformatics because it is more stable and broader in scope. 
Bottom line: would Biology.SE be receptive to an influx of SBOL practitioners asking an answering questions about this topic?

user27148: Our current standards on technique-based questions are described in the help as follows (emphasis mine):

(on-topic): questions about techniques in a biological or biochemical laboratory
Questions on interdisciplinary subjects like bioinformatics are also welcome, as long as they focus on the biological part of the subject.

I'm not familiar at all with SBOL so I'm hesitant to offer too much opinion but based on the example questions you've posted I don't see any of them focused on the biological part of the subject. Probably Bioinformatics is a better place, but given they (like here) have zero questions containing the term "SBOL" it seems like you will not find any existing expert residents.

user3624: As long as the questions focus on practical issues encountered when working in biology and biological research, with an emphasis on the biological aspects, I think it should be fine. We are lacking “expert type” questions anyway, and (if I understand you correctly) some/many of the questions you describe should fit that description.
Even if SBOL (which I know nothing of, before googling now) is fairly domain-specific and is geared towards the modeling of biological systems, if don’t (tentatively) see a big difference between this and questions on how to represent and describe other highly conceptual models of biological systems in an accurate way, be it mathematical models of populations, cell structures or the DNA-molecule.
To make it easier for people here to decide or have an opinion; could you maybe describe the outline of one or two potential questions on SBOL that’ll you think would be useful and a fit for Bio-SE?
If I understand the issue correctly, these are a couple of current Bio-SE Qs that are conceptually similar to possible SBOL-Qs:
* How is DNA read
* DNA topology o two circular chromosomes
* Models-of-quorum-sensing-for-multi-agent-systems

user22057: If you have a community that could respond to questions in your area, I would say welcome. It seems a relatively rigorously scientific area, and would dilute the unbelievable crap that is flooding the list at the moment.
