I agree with this, although I'm not aware of the distribution of members of the group, if this was to prove popular then there are two problems: 1. How would the cost of travel be covered? I'm all for volunteering but not if it starts to cost my significantly in expenses. 2. How would Canonical feel about this? Essentially we would be reducing their oppertunity for any kind of commercial support option that might be considered in conjunction with Tesco. > With regards to online support, it may end up swamping #ubuntu-uk, and > the mailing list, with support requests - I do not believe that this is > the intended purpose of either of these resources. This is already by far the most active mailing list that I subscribe to and would not care to see a significant increase in traffic. Why not a forum as there is for Dell?
