Right, but who owns debian.net? > > As for ask.debian.net, I don't know who runs it, but it's pretty much > dead. Exactly, the reason why I ask this question is because I want to bring it back to life. I think part of the reason why it was so unsuccessful is because Shapado is buggy, unusable, an appears to no longer be maintained. I think that there is some value to have a Q&A style support section and I wanted to replace shapado with a more modern and sustainable Q&A format, specifically discourse[1]. So if I could figure out who runs ask.debian.net we can work on perhaps importing some of the old questions into the new platform. And if that does not work we can always create a separate subdomain on debian.net which is why it would be great to get in touch with whoever has the power to do that. Thank you!
