First of all, I would like to give a big thank you to
everyone who has put time
into making WikiMedia work - I am impressed by how much has been achieved.
You almost got it: WikiMedia is the foundation running several
wikiprojects including WikiPedia. I believe you have made MediaWiki (the
software run) :)
<snip "cant find a forum">
We have no forum, instead we use mailing lists which are also registered
on
gname.org which then provide a nntp/blog/forum interface based on
mails by users.
<snip "link to mailing list hard to find">
I have changed the "Mailing lists" link on
www.mediawiki.org and it now
points directly on the list page:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
Incidentally - the gmane interface to the list looks
as though it ought to be
great, but I find that, in addition to me finding it difficult to find the
relevant forums, it does not appear to do searches very well. Is that others'
experience as well, or am I just doing something wrong?
Maybe search is broken on gmane actually ? We do not manage that
service, so there is little for us to say about it :o)
Meantime, you can have a look at our FAQ:

Welcome on the mailing list !
