While I may be a nova developer, and a dev on a few other projects, I'm a user on a much greater number of projects, and have a good idea of what has worked and not worked for me as a user. I've also gotten feedback from my users on projects I run, and together this experience has formed my opinions. As for why I might care, just because some have said they wouldn't visit doesn't mean that no developer will visit. My guess is that a great many will want to, and that number will depend on the form such a forum might take. I also care what the user experience is for a newcomer to the OpenStack community; like other developers, I have a lot of my own work invested in the project, and want it to succeed. -- Ed Leafe Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message (including any attached or embedded documents) is intended for the exclusive and confidential use of the individual or entity to which this message is addressed, and unless otherwise expressly indicated, is confidential and privileged information of Rackspace.
