To whom it may concern, Is there any plan/hope to consolidate the places where users can get assistance with Fedora? Choice is good in software, etc. I am not so sure that there being so many different places to get help with Fedora is benificial.
It can be confusing. Multiple sources, however, does allow choice of both community and medium they communicate in, irc, email, whatever.
What I think I'm trying to say is: is there any plan to design a centralised system through which for example the LQ.org Fedora forum, fedoraforum.org and the fedora-list could meet up? in a more organized fashion? I think the benifit would be that those contributing solutions can better focus their efforts instead of just sending a dart out now and then. And people seeking help may be less fustrated by posting their questions to an audience more in tune with what the really need help with.
Not that I know of. fedoraforum.org does archive some mail, but it really is a web forum. http://FedoraSearch.org may be something like what you're looking for. (Currently down.)
There seem to be too many places to go, but not enough taging and searchability among them. My google search rarely bring up solutions from the example sources i've stated....more often the solutions come from blogs and Ubuntu forums. Just my suggestion. Peace.
