True if there are already people helping out on that topic, then it would just give them a "proper home" for doing so. > In SUSE forums only participate SUSE users, Stackexchange is > visited by anybody (and if you participate in yet another > section of stack exchange, you earn bonus scores in other > sections). I know stackexchange :) So is there anything that must be done ? Anything that you cannot do yourself for that ? Any sort of "ownership" of that section that can be shared across several people ?
