Sorry for double posting, but I realized it was JIRA I spoke with Digium
about, not Google Groups and the mailing list... However, I do think it's
worth investigating or looking into alternatives that are more user
friendly and that can make it easier to communicate with everyone on the
list, whether a seasoned pro, top poster, or bottom poster.
