I am interested what kind of people complain, I don't think this are people who are in open source projects. > I'll describe how to handle the list in our new wiki, I don't think this is important.

I would put it on the website like so: ------------ Mailinglist: http://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev Forum: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.terminal-server.x2go.devel Usenet: gmane.linux.terminal-server.x2go.devel on news.gmane.org You can contact the developpers, but only for security related bugs or consultancy: bugs at x2go.org consultancy at x2go.org ------------ I would remove the webform, and be a bit "harder" to people who contact you directly. Don't answer when it's not about security related bugs or consultancy. You don't have the time!
