</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Hi all,
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> could you add mageiaitalia.org among the italian community forums that
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> provide
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> support for mageia? thanks
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> At the same time pls remove the german mandrivauser.de forum, now the
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> German Mageia forum is in place.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Thx
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> I think it would be great having a forum on mageia.org platform for
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> italian
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> users, too (I don't know the availability).
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> That way we give to the users a greater feeling of community and at the
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> same
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> time we don't have to ask for some kind of &quot;official certification&quot; for
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> other resources that can continue to exist anyway.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> But that's my opinion, as I can see even french users have they own forum
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> platform (maybe I'm missing some information written into previous
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> emails).
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> You have to evaluate this carefully. There are benefits and
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> disadvantages on both sides.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> On one side is the benefit of being &quot;inside&quot; the Mageia family. Users
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> access is done by LDAP. You (as admin) do not have to care for updates
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> or maintenance of the forum software, etc.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> On the other side is the need of a tight structure of the Mageia forum
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> software management, you can't just up and change a code line for the
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> sake of convenience or add your flavor of smilies on request of your
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> users or add some MODs you are used to have, as you would do with a
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> standalone forum - this has to be decided and done by the sysadmins /
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> forum admins. In short: you are not free to do as you like, you depend
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> on the decisions and the workflow of others because your forum is a
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> part of a larger system.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I'm still thinking that the advantages you've proposed are more important
</I>&gt;<i> compared to the disadvantages.
</I>&gt;<i> I think that people use forums to find solutions, to propose ideas or
</I>&gt;<i> whatever: the appearance is less important compared to the contents, IMHO.
</I>&gt;<i> Moreover, as you suggested, the admin doesn't have to take care of the
</I>&gt;<i> maintenance.
</I>&gt;<i> If someone doesn't like the official forums because they are not stylish,
</I>&gt;<i> they can always take a look around and find other places that are more
</I>&gt;<i> aesthetically-performant.
</I>
That is sure right,  but I was not talking about &quot;stylish&quot;. I only
tried to give a fair picture of both sides.
