If I go out to the Communicate page I see two forums listed as the most popular forums. http://en.opensuse.org/Communicate
I don't understand why the Novell sponsored openSUSE forums are not on the front page. It is a very popular and useful forum for openSUSE. It has an NNTP interface and a newly designed web interface. http://forums.novell.com/forumdisplay.php?f=11 And it is sponsored and staffed by Novell and community members.
Hi Joe Is it. Interesting, it's more or less 10 years I'm using and contributing heavily to (open)S[uU]SE and it's the first time ever that I hear about that forum. I'm not interested in using web forums so that might be a reason ;) Note that we pretty much discarded having a Novell-sponsored forum because it would be forbidden to link to the most important community package repositories (such as Packman) because of the potential legal problems involved in doing so (uncrippled packages).
While I understand why SUSEforums.net is there, I feel that http://forums.novell.com/forumdisplay.php?f=11 should be listed in place of SUSELinuxSupport.de if we are going to limit it to two.
I don't think it was ever the goal to limit it to two. It's just that
suseforums.net and suselinuxsupport.de are the best known and largest
English speaking openSUSE community forums.
As said, first time I hear about Novell hosting an openSUSE forum. Good
to know I guess ;)
"I don't understand why [...]" => I don't understand why no one ever
sent an email like yours on this list before.
That being done, I think we should add it to the list on the wiki.
Any objections ?
cheers
