Here at FedoraForum.org we've just merged the Artoo Fedora FAQ Forums into us. This is fantastic news for the community, as it helps to eradicate the duplication of effort which currently exists. It will mean that there is now one definite place to go and ask for help, with more members and therefore more expertise in one place. All of the existing threads and users have been merged into the forums.

This now means that the forum has a staggering 1,254 members with 836 threads and 4,536 posts at the time of writing. Making this forum, the premier online resource for the Fedora community.

What does this mean for you? Well put simply this means: More experience - more users in one place makes for more experience and therefore better help A centralisation of resources making it easier to find what you need A better community atmosphere, more users, more regulars and therefore a better feeling of community If you have a duplicate account on both forums, your user has been merged. Meaning that your post count will be the sum of that in both forums. All of the threads which were on the #fedora FAQ forum have been moved across and a full list of where each thread can now be found is located here (http://fedorafaq.org/forums_moved.html).

At the same time we'd like to welcome Avatraxiom and vorte[x] to the forums. Avatraxiom was the administrator of http://fedora.artoo.net/forum and vorte[x] was the moderator. Avatraxiom will be assuming a role as a Super Moderator and vorte[x] as a moderator for the support forums.

A big thanks must be made to everyone involved for all their hard effort in pulling this off. Firstly to Tux for making the merge technically possible, mhelios for his dedication to the forum, Avatraxiom to agreeing to the merge and being so helpful as well as to foolish who planted the seed.

We hope you enjoy and benefit from the expanded forums!

Thanks go to everyone involved in making this happen. :)

Let's keep aiming forward and striving to make this place a must-stop for the Fedora community.

--The Fedora Project is what we as a community make of it, so let's turn it into the best Linux distro available! Good support resources is key to this success. :)

We missed the newsletter by 24 hours. But I sent an email, I also made a submission to the announcement mailing list and the standard mailing list.

Are there any updates for the fedorafaq.org? If you look at what debian & ubuntu have, the fedorafaq is a joke! (No pun intended but its true.)
