I support the idea for a separate uDig-Users list if possible please. I'm playing catch-up (for the most part) with other more experienced uDIG users, and find the development learning curve an absolute nightmare (even though I can program to some extent). Unfortunately for a person like myself (and I suspect I am not the only one), it's just not that straightforward or simple to understand. I'd like to get into the programming side, but find the "simple" examples just don't work for some reason. Unfortunately I need to get a few things up and going in a very short time, and despite spending many hours looking for pointers and examples, there is no simple guide (for what I want to do anyway). There is so much I'd like to do with uDIG. It (as a potential broader corporate solution) offers so much potential, but at the moment appears to have a much steeper (and more complex and convoluted) learning curve than our current commercially based solution (which needs scripting to customise). I guess you have to live with that considering what you "pay" for uDIG. I think uDIG is fantastic and really appreciate the efforts of those who are investing there blood, sweat and tears into it. I only wish I could do the same.

As it is, if lots of traffic gets onto -devel we won't be able to migrate the user traffic cleanly to -users. Andrea Antonello wrote: > I have a doubt.
