+As I have come into the discussion at a very late date, I would like to
+express my point of view as well FOR a &quot;user support list&quot;. We should
+provide to all users a variety of ways by which they are able to
+communicate problems with the Mageia team. IMO it seems defeatist to
+remove one of the most logical tools known to the internet community
+where they could seek communication with a support team.
+
+As we all know by now, such a support list can easily be bridged to a a
+forums board where any of the Mageia support team members would be
+available to help trouble-shoot events causing frustration to our user
+base.
+
+It does not make any sense to cut off any avenues of communication for
+our user base when we are looking for growth of our product. If we do
+so, the we can not complain later of of user apathy if users cannot
+easily find a communication model by which they feel comfortable to
+voice their satisfaction, positive or negative.
+
+Let's make it easy for all to speak to us rather than have them conform
+to a system where they may feel uncomfortable. They will only go to
+another platform where they will be able to participate freely. Let's
+offer choice rather than limits.
+
+Cheers
+
+Marc
