Happily just changed the logo to Ferris The Crab, courtesy of Karen Rustad. The intention was never to be or mimic an official channel. Apologies if it ever came out that way. > It's of course fine to create your own mailing lists, but our discourse > forums are currently the official place for open-ended discussion. That's totally fine but I honestly think that separate mailing lists per locality would serve the community better. That's my entire rationale for building Rustaceans.com - I'm scratching my own itch, trying to follow the example of what the Perl Monger's user groups have done to build Perl's great community. At the moment the Discourse forum is flat with only four categories. Finding and organising a local group is getting lost in between the sea of people looking for help with Rust. There's too much noise-to-signal happening. I don't thing anyone can disagree with me here. Other's will say that Meetup.com fills this gap. However if you have ever tried to have a conversation within it's comments, you will find they are next to useless.
