The IRC Channel importance and a 4.1G preview image
Easter is arriving and i promised to start writing something on the blog and on the website.
First thing i want to say is that Fabio is still with us, Joost’s April fool has been funny to read. (joost, STFU now till next year!)
I’m used to be connected to the Irc #sabayon channel the more often I can, but I noticed that often is silent, but that maybe because I’m there when users are working/studying.
I think the Irc is an important way to let us (staff) and you (users) to communicate and help togheter:
- we help you to fix your problems and LEARN something new about linux
- you help us to know what issues are present on our release so we can try to fix those in future releases, or help other users to fix the same problems.
Today happened exactly this, a guy in the channel asked how to fix a problem, we found that sabayon were missing something and we fixed that on real time. (Many thanks)
We have a lot of tools to receive your feedback but i think that “talking” is the better way.
And remember to be patient, the staff on IRC has other thousand things to do, so dont mess with us if u don’t have an answer quickly, we do our best.
AND PLEASE : read the channel topic BEFORE posting. And don’t ask if u can ask, just do it.
We have some rules to be followed on Irc to give you the best experience and don’t let staff to become mad!
We are waiting for you on IRC! There is also a #sabayon-social chan to let u talk about anything else (puters, cars, girls, etc…) without breaking balls on the support channel. So, use it!
About Sabayon 4.1 i’ll show you a little preview on what you’ll find in gnome. You should expect good news in few days. So, STAY TUNED!
