Subject: [Viktor] Suggestions on How to Get Help
Hello Viktor,
It would be nice if in the following Harbour's SourceForge link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/harbour-project/support
we have something that redirect the new users to this mailing list
in order to get Help.
We already have our forum linked in. Linking the dev list
may not be a very good idea there as dev-list isn't the
right place to give classic user support.
Okay, then let's point the potential new users to the Harbour User
Mail list, or simply show the link:
http://www.harbour-project.org/mailing.html
Because currently, the "Support Harbour" section on the Harbour's
SourceForge page shows this:
Best Way To Get Help
Unfortunately, this project hasn't indicated the best way to get help.
Contact the project's administrators to find out how to get help.
Also there is not a "Support" link in the http://www.harbour-project.org/page
, I know that under "Development" is the link to the mailing lists
but I think that would be much clear to have it under "Support"
We should ask/inform Vailton about it, he's the master
of our page.
Also, I think that it's very important to have the recent
Przemek's xhb-diff.txt document somewhere at sight in the
Harbour's main web page (of course after Przemek's permission), I
believe that not few xHarbour users will appreciate it.
I agree, we can think how to make it more accessible.
Maybe moving it to our project root for some time, might
also help. Plus, since the text is highly detailed and
technical (which I personally like BTW), maybe someone
could compile a shorter version with the essence of it
and we could put that somewhere on the page, so more ppl
can understand it and more ppl will start to read it.

best regards,
Teo
