The Gmail spam filters have been over-reacting a lot the past couple
of days. In fact, a Summer of Code message *from* Google was held up
by it today. Irony!

I agree. I always like to see what support options are out there. I
say that if people are willing to use it, let them. They clearly want
to, and people are likely to give more help in areas they want to
support. I'm not sure I'll be there as I like the concept of
discussions in a forum a little better (if you know me, you know my
bias), but obviously some people are enthusiastic about it.

If you don't like it or don't care for it, don't use it. If you do,
more power to you. As for me, I'll be on vacation in an hour, so I'm
probably going to stop reading replies. :D
