It just so happens that stackoverflow is the official support channel for Plone users as linked by http://plone.org/support For our casual users and integrators mailing lists aren't a good fit and using Nabble to mask mailing lists as web forums was only a minor improvement. We continue to use mailing lists for core and add-on developers. And of course it's up to the CMF developers to choose their official support channels. Just don't be alarmed if you see references to stackoverflow from time to time - it's probably from people coming through Plone.

But your question has been answered by the Plone folks anyways. As a side note: It's general considered bad practice to ask the same question on multiple channels. This applies to posting the same question to multiple mailing lists ("cross posting") or to a bug tracker and a general mailing list or as in this case to a mailing list and a web forum. At least wait a couple days to see if you get a response on one channel, before posting it on a different one.

It's a matter of where the developers/supporters hang out and what channels they use for accepting questions, bug reports or support requests. For the CMF that means this list or the Launchpad sites for the various components. If there's someone who wants to volunteer monitoring and answering requests on a separate channel, like that website, that's fine. But until that time people should be warned that posting requests somewhere else may not yield any results. jens -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iEYEARECAAYFAk2gJ1kACgkQRAx5nvEhZLJgRQCdE32TMDT4wUvmUM6jEm/mK1H/ OWYAnRzTuV6BvZV4VePRJ2NFmNh1QxKj =h/BQ -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Zope-CMF maillist - Zope-CMF@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-cmf See https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/ for bug reports and feature requests

If you would like to ask a question please use those. But there are some Plone people lurking there, and plone is a good tag. But mailing lists will probably be faster than SO for any kind of tool that isn't wildly popular. //Lennart ___ Zope-CMF maillist - Zope-CMF@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-cmf See https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/ for bug reports and feature requests

Not sure what that site is or does, but the only forums regularly visited and supported by the CMF developers are this mailing list and Launchpad.

Please see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5603459/genericsetup-what-does-toolset-xml-accomplish-if-toolinit-still-has-to-be-called I could not create a "cmf" tag, so if you can please add that to the tags in the question.
