These mailing lists go to a lot of people, so lots of small beginner questions that aren't exactly on topic (this isn't a PERL list) will just annoy people. In IRC you will likely get a faster response, and thousands of people will be spared the 20+ emails that have been generated from your discussion so far. I would recommend EFNet or Freenode, as I've found lots of helpful folks on those networks. ~Brad Scott@Charter wrote: > Then why do these groups exist?
