[ome-users] OMERO Beta4.0.x Status

[Woodbridge, Mark R]

Like Paulo, I think forums are a good idea... probably easier to search and to keep track of long-running threads. But we would need some way of being notified of new postings, either via email or RSS, otherwise you have to visit the forum every 5 minutes to check if someone has answered your question.

Mark.

Hi Jason,

The forums sound good, but if it's not too much work, I would suggest
providing an RSS feed of the forum, or of particular topics. I've seen that
in phpBB boards (a feed of the whole forum, not of topics), but I don't know
if you just have to click a button or if it's more complicated.

Best regards,
Paulo
