Hello all,
Ive made some minor changes to H2O Software, Inc. Forum site
You should now be able to send / receive email and hopefully,
Ive configured the registration an logon process to be more
user friendly. I would like suggestions on certain forums you may
be intertested in. I will work hard to keep the forum programming
only oriented so as to not waste anyones time.
If you havnt done so you can register here:
http://h2osoft.homeip.net/phpbb2/index.php
Please keep all post Euphoria codeing related as I will delete non
Euphoria programming material from the forum.
Thanks,
Euman

What is the purpose of that forum?
I always thought, _here_ is the proper place to discuss about Euphoria
programming.

Hmm.. looking at my dictionary, what "dedicated" exactly means.
Anyway, we cannot discuss the German translation here. 
So I look into a little English thesaurus:
"/dedicate/ devote to a person, use, or cause"
So what is actually a 'more dedicated forum'?

Yes, I made this experience, too.

There can be, of course. I just don't know, whether it's a good idea.
Generally speaking, I think it's always better to join forces, rather
than to split forces.

I see. I've almost forgotten about the forum, because I only read and
write messages by mail (except when Topica has technical problems with
delivering the mail). It's also my opinion, that threaded forums are a
lot easier to use. But I prefer not to use any web interface at all.

What are "Blogs", please? I've searched several dictionaries (those
printed on paper, and those on the internet), but didn't find any
explanation.

At the moment, yes. But I think, this can change quickly.

If someone posts a problem, I believe s/he'll get help soon, as I always
experienced, since I've joined the list.

I also don't want anything else than expressing my opinion.
And I'm actually somewhat concerned about potential splitting of the
community.

That's what we call "life", isn't it?

Those Romans had the saying "Divide et impera!". They did that with
their enemies. We shouldn't do that with ourself.

Thanks for the explanation!
