It's a great idea, but do we have to ask the Council to do this? They've got their work cut out with the whole transition thing and to heap more work might be unkind.

I think the moderated chat idea might be far better so people ca ask what they like, and Jolla can answer what they want to. Although can we already do that at #jollamobile?

Apparently not......
No "wackoness" here, but thanks for the compliment, just inferring from what we know, and what has been explained.

Please don't feed the troll...

Yes they should have a site but setting up such proffesionell site is not done in a week, they can't just setup a random "wordpress site" with all the attention they had gotten latelly.

Give them some time for got sake. Have anyone here ever tried to setup a new company? I doubt....

Better to formulate a list of Qns systematically, instead of devising them on-the-spot in a chat session...
Even if we had pre-formulated Qns, still best to let them have time to mull over them, instead of having to answer "real-time" in a chat session.
Even if they had time to mull over them before the chat session, it's still all a bit messy, not to mention exlusionary.
The thread's best suited IMO, we can link to a Google doc or wiki from it, so we have one central repository in which to place all our thoughts/Qns.
Then when done we can send the link & they can answer in-line, or directly in the thread, whatever suits.

jalyst i think you should start a thread where people can post their suggested questions then accordingly create a wiki for it....if everyone from the very beginning starts editing the wiki, its going to be a mess and some people as we have seen earlier today will just be posting madness...

Okay I've placed a link to a google doc in the main thread here.
If others strongly disagree with this approach for some reason we can do something else, doesn't bother me either way.

Think 'developer mode' that doesn't suck and enables you to flash own OS/kernel if you want.

Nice of you to conveniently omit the sentence before the one you quoted:

Anyway, why flog a dead horse, we're going to get answers to many of the lingering Qns now.
Which should hopefully make people at least a bit happier...
