I have heard so many "I talked to Aurellian, and he is > open..." that I have no idea what Aurellian has really promised to do, what > is actually feasible, and what has been "That is nice..

This is more of a long-term roadmap thing, and, honestly, I think Hyperkitty with some minor extensions would serve our needs better than Askbot currently does. (And as I understand it, Askbot is just one developer too.) We don't have the discipline or the level of participation of Stack Exchange to make the site really work as a specialized Question and Answer site, and it's really functioning more like a web forum for troubleshooting. So, the extensions would simply be flags to mark something as an answer, to view replies sorted by votes, and to mark a question as answered. I'm not saying that that's not a lot of effort, but it's not writing a whole new piece of software. -- Matthew Miller -- Fedora Project -- <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure
