Hi Offray,

I like the idea of forums. Always have. Did the Manjaro community have trouble with spam? How is it moderated? Email lists seem to be less vulnerable to spam, although we have received some in the past. Forums seem to need constant moderation to ensure they are not invaded by spam. I seem to remember there was a forum way back when. There is a forum interface to the mailing list already: http://forum.world.st/Squeak-Beginners-f107673.html. What do you think Discourse would add to the community over what we have already?

Also, note there are a few other places where we sort of gather. #IRC #squeak http://tunes.org/~nef/logs/squeak/ don't see much going on there. Google Plus Group: https://plus.google.com/u/1/communities/111117917267462353507. Twitter https://twitter.com/SqueakSmalltalk. Planet Squeak: http://planet.squeak.org/ and https://news.squeak.org/ wow it has been a long time since I made a post!

I imagine someone probably did a slack channel. Yes I was correct: http://squeak.org/community/

All the best,

Ron Teitelbaum

Hi Offray,

Squeak dev always has been the place to be and newbies was just invented to have a lower hurdle on entry.

For the automatic traffic there's (spam) filters in your mail program.

Please feel free move over, we are not so many in our community that separate lists are needed.

My 2c.

Cheers,

Herbert

Hi Ron,

I'm just in the beginners list (when I subscribed I was a beginner and I never thought of myself as a developer). I have seen the dev list, but there is a lot of automatic mail send by commit activity. I'm not sure if I want such traffic in my mail inbox.

Anyway, having proper feedback places is important and I wonder if some kind of middle place between developers and beginners is needed. In the Pharo case, the users list has pretty good activity without details about commits. Maybe beginners is misleading and we need a users list or setup something like discourse[1] to improve communication. In the Manjaro case, it has worked pretty well[2] (but, of course, infrastructure by itself is not a warranty).

Offray,

Are you signed up on the squeak-dev mailing list or just beginners? I think the members of the Squeak-Dev list would enjoy having you there! You would also get more feedback from that group.

All the best,

Ron
