RailsForum.com

A lot of the traffic on this list involves questions that may be better
suited for a forum environment. RailsForum.com has people of all
experience
levels and, while very new, is proving to be a useful place for getting
help.

Just in case folks hadn’t heard about it,

erm… these two seem to be interconnected…

Not so, the rails “forum” at ruby-forum.com is gated to this mailing
list. railsforum.com is a relatively new “pure” forum that’s not gated
to an email list. I’d love to see one of the mail pure forums gain a
critical mass as I personally prefer a forum based community for a lot
of my questions.

Are you sure? This one made it OK.

None of my messages are getting to this list and I’m not sure why. I’d
appreciate some kind of reason as to why my messages don’t get to the
list
anymore.

Thanks.

I’m sort of new to all this so I hope you’ll forgive the stupid-newb
question, but… What’s a ‘forum environment’? How does it differ from
a
mailing list? If you’re talking about IRC vs. email, how does the Ruby
IRC
not meet your needs?

Just FYI, I’m all in favor of a ‘channel’ approach. This list has far
too
many channels (e.g. dev env setup vs. dev vs. prod. env setup vs. prod
env
choices vs. …) How would your approach address this ‘issue’?

Thanks.
Bill
