topic topic

Thought I would start some more discussion on the /topic in #fedora. In the past we had it pushing the limit of what freenode would let us do and were always scrambling to make it shorter. Many people would not read it because it scrolled off their client. Others would be pointed there, but say "where?" and not see the part that someone was pointing them to. So, we switched to a very short topic that just points to the FAQ page. Now, there are a few other items that folks have mentioned might be good to add back into the topic. So, what should it be? Post your suggestions here. Currently its: Fedora 12 & 13 end-user support. Please READ: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Channel_FAQ Items that people have mentioned as possibly good to have in there: - Please use fpaste.org - Pointer to fedoraunity.org for their excellent guides - Pointer to our feedback trac page. Anyhow, I personally like it smaller, but I can see it being good to add a few more items... So, what do folks think we should set it to? kevin
