Dear mailing list users, we, the development team of JabRef just opened a new discussion and support platform for JabRef.
You can find it by now in the top navigation bar on JabRef.org or directly here: http://discourse.jabref.org The main reasons for introducing this forum are: - Foster the communication between the large user base and the developers of JabRef, creation of an active "JabRef community" - Provide an easier to use, searchable, more modern way to give feedback and request help - Provide a better place for feature and enhancement discussions by a dedicated category for such topics: http://discourse.jabref.org/c/features - Reduce the number of created issues at the GitHub tracker - only real bugs and work-in-progress feature requests should be handled there During the last years we started to move away from sourceforge.net (for various reasons): The source code and issues are now managed at GitHub, downloads are handled by FossHub and we are using our own domain JabRef.org for hosting the website - only this mailing list is still organized at sourceforge.net. With the new forum we now provide an easy to use platform to ask questions (and hopefully to get answers) from the JabRef community. Thus, we decided to officially discontinue the support on the mailing list. We'll leave the list open for some time - but the official communication channels for the future will be the GitHub issue tracker (for bugs - see: https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues ) and the new discourse forum (for all other questions, feature requests and feedback). We are aware that a lot of you guys on the mailing list like this way of communication, with the ability to sort, search and work offline in the mail client of your choice. The good news is: Even the new forum is generally web-based, it is still possible to use it just like a mailinglist - with even some more advanced filtering mechanisms. If you are interested in the usage of the new forum in the so called "mailing-list mode" just check out the guide we created for you: http://discourse.jabref.org/t/quick-start-guide-for-former-mailing-list-users/31 We hope you will follow us to the new forum and contribute there with your valuable knowledge with has already helped lots of users here in the list! If you have any trouble with signing up or configuring the forum just contact me!
