Subject: RealForum Bulletin Board

RealForum Members,

I would like to announce a trial run of the new RealForum Bulletin Board at:
http://realforum.real.com/cgi-bin/realforum/wwwthreads.pl

For now, the bulletin board will be run in parallel with the RealForum 
mailing list to assess its effectiveness in driving discussions within the 
RealMedia community.  To post to the bulletin board, you must create an 
account for yourself, since anonymous posting has been disabled.  Hopefully 
this requirement will preserve the quality of the community discussions.

In the past, as many of you are aware, I have run a fairly strict mailing 
list, often to a fault, trying to prevent the list from becoming flooded 
with simple technical support requests.  While this list will still be 
moderated, expect the moderation to be lighter, since each post will not be 
mailed to several thousand people.  That said, the same suggestions still 
apply: 1) check the archives first, 2) check the support web site, and 3) 
assess whether you are asking a question which someone in the community is 
likely to be able to give valuable feedback on, or if submitting your 
question to RealNetworks' technical support team would make more sense.

A few features that you should definitely check out:

- Search - always very helpful
- Subscribing - within your profile, subscribe to receive a daily archive 
of all posts
- Categories - read only the topics that you are interested in

Please feel free to submit feedback to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Let 
me know what you think!

Regards,

Adam Cappio
