Hi all, This has been a great discussion so far! In addition to hearing from the general user community, I'm also interested in hearing from the vendors who are part of our community. Please let us know what you think because I think we ultimately want to strike a balance between providing us

No, I thank you for bringing up those points and I think you're right we do seem to have a slightly differently view of the intent and so these discussions are good to have. I hope we will hear from more folks! On Mon, Sep 8, 2014 at 1:18 PM, Sharp, Chris wrote: > Thanks again, Rogan, for the

I'm only speaking for myself here but I don't think it's necessary but nor is the listing itself. It's a nice thing to do as a community to help people find resources in a way that's hopefully a bit more curated than just heading to Google (or Duck Duck Go or whatever). To me if we're going to cu
