Support Team

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi Ali,

As mentioned in my reply upon your acceptance to LST, the role that seems
to be forming is that of LABC. You should have received the emails on the
discussions about what LST will do. i.e. co-ordinating between the various
support methods and areas. Flagging up un-resolved support questions,
flagging up for discussion items to be included both on the one-stop-thread
and the FAQ area etc. As you are already the point of contact for that, it
does make sense that you be the co-ordinator for LST. Any IRC issues that
need adding to FAQ should also be added to your thread on the main forum,
and vice-versa. The LST mailing list will be the one used for this. As I
stated, I do hope for more than just one representative from each of other
teams but the Dev team is small in number (as is the art team). All those
interested and involved in support I hope will join the list. As soon as
the consensus of the role of LST is finalised to the point we can roll it
out, I'll happily update the wiki page for LST to state what it is there
for.

Regards,

Phill.
