Hi guys, I just came across this blog post from an Inkscape developer:
http://bryceharrington.org/drupal/inkscape-answers Bryce is also a Canonical employee, so there may be some Launchpad bias, but I think the idea is neat. We could similarly provide a more direct link to human help from gschem and other gEDA tools, from the help menu. I realise we currently have links to the wiki / FAQ, but feel there is a high barrier to entry for a new user to sign up to a mailing list for an answer to what might be a simple question, even if they can't find the answer in the FAQ. I'm very keen that we should encourage new users to join the gEDA community, and think this may be a good way to get them thinking more about gEDA as something they aren't "alone" in using.
