Hi Gema,<div><br></div><div>one of the "wonderful" things about any area is that you will have people ask technical questions. Rather than scream "RTFM", giving them the links to where and how to get the information, as opposed to using it as support area is also a subtle, but important difference :)</div>
<div><br></div><div>"What, there is actually a QA team?" was a highly scored answer to a recent survey, along with the FB area which I set up to give QA a presence, Nicholas has set up a G+ page.</div><div><br>

</div>I didn't know that, Phill, thanks for the info! So anyone can see what's<br>
going on as long as they have a FB user but they need to go through<br>
scrutiny (i.e. deciding if they are spammers) to join, right?<br>
<br>
Sounds good.<br>
<br>
In any case, I have decided to un-join the group in support of our users<br>
that cannot follow us in FB and my own conviction that it is not the<br>
right thing to do to have technical conversations there. I can spare<br>
myself the advertisement, since I follow things closely on IRC and<br>
mailing anyway.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
