I updated the wiki to point to the /community.html page. (We're going to migrate the wiki real soon now anyway)
I updated the /community.html page per this thread too.

Anything else we can do to update the Spark Community page / welcome email? Meanwhile, let's all start answering questions on SO, eh?! :) Denny On Thu, Nov 10, 2016 at 1:54 PM Holden Karau <[hidden email] <http://user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=19835&i=0>> wrote: That's a good question, looking at http://stackoverflow.com/tags/apache-spark/topusers shows a few contributors who have already been active on SO including some committers and PMC members with very high overall SO reputations for any administrative needs (as well as a number of other contributors besides just PMC/committers).

Do we have enough contributors with enough reputation do manage things in SO? We would need contributors with enough reputation to have relevant privilages. For example: creating tags (requires 1500 reputation), edit questions and answers (2000), create tag synonums (2500), approve tag wiki edits (5000), access to moderator tools (10000, this is required to delete questions etc.), protect questions (15000). All of these are important if we plan to have SO as a main resource. I know I originally suggested SO, however, if we do not have contributors with the required privileges and the willingness to help manage everything then I am not sure this is a good fit. Assaf.

Saying this, perhaps we could suggest tags that we place in the header of the question whether it be SO or the mailing lists that will help us sort through all of these questions faster just as you suggested. The Proposed Community Mailing Lists / StackOverflow Changes <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N0pKatcM15cqBPqFWCqIy6jdgNzIoacZlYDCjufBh2s/edit#heading=h.xshc1bv4sn3p> has been updated to include suggested tags. WDYT?
