Why don't we have a forum/BB? I've been curious of that for a while, that way if it something important, that we want to keep hush, hush, we could use Private Messages, to get that info.
Those of us that use Cpanel 4.2 now have BB's in the control panel that we could setup for all the RSP's to use for these topics. I'm sure there could be plenty of options for that. OpenSRS probably even has that on their servers. Maybe not, but probably. I only think of that, cause when we respond to these emails, a lot of time newbies like I first did, will hit just reply, then it don't go to everyone, then if the person the newbie responded to, did not get the answer they were needing, may not realize that it did not go to the entire list. Just a thought.
