Everyone,

this is just a quick reminder for those subscribed to the mailing list  
that  
we are active in some other media as well.

For quick discussions, but less permanent records, IRC can be useful.  
I’ve  
updated the corresponding wiki page, because some newer members of this  
community have mentioned that joining can be a bit scary, maybe this  
helps:

We’ve recently tried to add stack overflow as a means of asking and  
answering questions, as this gets better search engine indexing and it’s  
really useful for typical limited-scope questions. Find Q’s tagged  
‘gnuradio’ here:

There hasn’t been much traffic here, but most questions have received  
good  
answers (owed, to a large part, to our GSoC alumnus and helpful person  
Marcus M.).

Please stay respectful regardless of the medium.

Have fun,  
Martin
