Error 1 Their point is that all mailinglists and web based forums are for the unwashed masses and the true community life is in the newsgroup. So they demand from the Mandrake management to read and post there because websites and web based forums are ... see beginning of chapter. I remember when there was a lively discussion about Ga�l Duval being too much a coward to discuss his point s in the newsgroup. Error 2 They seek information about Mandrake everywhere except on the official Mandrake sites. I remember a lot of postings where people asked where they could find this or that info. None of the weathered Linux and Mandrake gurus ever suggested the right place on one of the Mandrake sites. They pointed to /., to all other sites and even to Google. I was fed up with this ignorance although the place was always good for a laugh!
