Another volunteer tester here if required!

Just in case anyone is wondering why I've been posting here but not on the mailing list, it’s because I really don’t like mailing lists. I find them very unengaging, distant and generally backward. Personally I find them highly exclusive; and I don’t mean that in a good way, like a trendy restaurant or posh club, I mean as a novice user, I feel excluded. And I don’t think that’s a good starting point for a community-centric operation! My own two cents anyway, sorry for the rant. I'm still following the meego community list however, just reluctantly, and I’m not contributing.

Going off on a tangent, I notice most of today's posts on the mailing list concern arranging an IRC meet, which perhaps kind of implicitly points to the inadequacies of the mailing list format in itself. Anyway, the meet is looking like 16:00 UTC Friday (5th) but that could be subject to change, just for anyone interested. Although I think the agenda is looking less relevant to the current topic.

Anyway, this is all just a really long winded way of saying I've not lost interest in the project, quite the opposite, and I’ll be looking to get more involved and stop twiddling my thumbs when these forums show up Keep up the good work Reggie & co!
