The Stack exchange software (used by Stack overflow) is proprietary. I think Ubuntu used to have their instance hosted there. There is AskBot (http://askbot.org/) which is a free software alternative. It seems to be used by Fedora (https://ask.fedoraproject.org/) and we could run that on our servers. Solace (http://opensource.plurk.com/solace/) is another possibility. > We could possibly just point people to > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/gnome-3 or > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/gnome Relying on a third party hosted, non free software tool when there is a viable free software alternative doesn't seem very in line with the GNOME philosophy. -- Alexandre Franke _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
