I think that there is some value to have a Q&A style support
section

Out of interest, what is wrong with the mailing list and the forum?


Also, out of interest, if the OP cannot use whois to reveal all the
needed info, I would suggest running a support group to those with much
more experience. Have a nice day. Ric

Not sure what you mean by that. This is the information I was looking
for https://wiki.debian.org/DebianNetDomains .. none of this is in the
WHOIS.


There is a mailing address and phone number listed. At any rate, you can
always register a new domainname. Ric

Ok. The other people on this list got me the information that I needed
and I am in the process of setting up discourse now for ask.debian.net
thanks to this list.

You are? That's quick! Discourse looks interesting but it is worth
querying whether the quality of the software running a site is critical
to the site's popularity. ask.debian.net started off well enough; quite
a number of developers answered questions. But, as time went on, it
declined. My view is that this mailing list and forums.debian.net are
enough for the Debian help system.

Be that as it may, would it be it be asking too much to keep this list
informed on progress. Thanks for your work.

I don't think you understood the nature of my request but if it was not
for this list I have no idea how long it would have taken to get in
touch with the person I needed.

I think Ric does understand the request but cannot resist putting the
boot in. :) It's all part of the debian-user experience.

Heh, I understood the nature of the request perfectly. All the info needed was available from the get go with a simple whois. Ric
