Questions get answered better and more comprehensively elsewhere. > I however, tend to use this list in my imaginary hierachy of help: > 1) This List > 2) #Ubuntu-uk on IRC > 3) https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ > 4) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ > 5) as 2) + 'ping popey' ;) > Heh.

So you can get one-to-one support rather than the many-to-one melee that #ubuntu can be.
