There’s a Watir forum on SQAForums. It has all of six Watir-related threads…it might be a interesting destination to switch efforts to.

I think Watir should have its own land ( a forum ). I tried both Selenium, Watin and WebTest, but I'm in love w/ Watir.

I agree something better is needed, google groups is not well suited to a 'support' type of work, there's no good way to track answered vs unanswered questions, nor which responses ended up being the best answer. Even the MSDN forums that MS has are far better, but I'm not sure if it would be open to us to create a forum there, nor if doing so would cause some kind of knee-jerk allergic reaction "OMG it's Microsoft" among Mac and Linux users. I created sample questions, and used up all my votes for all three types of question. I wonder if it was just not clear to people HOW to vote for the example questions? We had enough people over there, but nobody voted. did they not realize what it is they need to do?
