Hi folks,

the website http://fluentd.org/doc/ does *not* list any means of contacting developers or users, such as mailing lists or an IRC channel.

Of course there's GitHub's issue tracker here, but this involves a bit of a thought process so not writing that on the website also makes it unclear.

You don't have to run your own mailing lists - just like you don't have to run your own IRC server (FreeNode, Oftc are all very FOSS friendly).
For mailing lists, there's Zed Shaw's http://librelist.com/

But please, please, please consider starting lists for users (and maybe plugin developers)

Open Source without support is bad :(and open source without transparency for developers is just as bad).:

So long,

i
