I'm not sure what Christopher is intending with his tone here, but I don't seem
to remember anybody being opposed to doing anything that the community wants to
do. It's just all a matter of time and resources. If the community would like
to have a forum, I don't think anybody is opposed to it. Somebody just needs to
set it up and pick a place for it to live. That somebody would probably have to
be on the core team, just because that person would also have to be the
administrator. That means that doing forum administration would also take time
away from writing code, testing, or debugging the toolset. I think we're always
open to suggestions. Just because we don't sometimes use a suggestion or choose
to go a different way doesn't mean that we don't play well with others.
Also, aren't there other "forum-like" venues already out there for WiX? I know
there are a couple of Wiki sites and also sites that aggregate these emails.
What additional value will a forum serve? (I'm not opposed to it, I'm just
asking for more clarification).
Thanks,
Justin

Yes, the answer is pretty much always `email rocks, forums suck, I'm a really
important contributor and if there is ever a change I'm going to take my ball
and go home.`

Maybe no-one can remember. I can't be sure if it was here, but I've a feeling
there was such discussion once. It should be possible to find out from the

Has there been any discussion on the creation of community-driven forums?
