[Bulk] Re: Project: Community Computers/ Xubuntu Feedback

[Jeff Hanson]

Well of course we do want to share stories about things we've done.. :)

But I guess we were thinking more about giving feedback for design
decisions for suture releases, as these decisions will impact us directly.

It seems the email list here might not be so bad if I can filter it right.
Are there forums that are used at all for xubutnu?
