I wasn't objecting to one for MD. My concerns are: Is Fred & J Bloggs the persons real names ? If not, why the secrecy ? Secondly I was just making users aware of other areas where open discussions of HCN etc takes place. Thirdly F Bloggs said: "Although HCN provides web based forums for discussion of their software and encourages user participation, these forums are moderated and not available to everyone". I disagree that they encourage user participation. I am a paid up PS3 user and I have no access to the PS forums. I was banned long ago because only certain user participation is allowed. If one makes truthful postings (ie. User participation), no matter how painful, the HCN forom moderator cuts the link for that user.

Web forums are great for knowledge bases, but suck for discussions. There are mailing lists run by users for most software packages, why do you object to one for MD?
