We monitor both our own list (obviously!) and StackOverflow. There's really no way to monitor gist, but it's a good place to put code snippets referenced from the list or SO. As Daniel says, SO isn't very good for open-ended conversations. On the other hand, it's easier to search and has a lower barrier to entry (you don't need to subscribe) than the mailing list. Really, it's whatever you feel most comfortable with. _______________________________________________ fipy mailing list [email protected] http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy [ NIST internal ONLY: https://email.nist.gov/mailman/listinfo/fipy ]
