Again, Andy, if you monitor this at all, please terminate the Gitter group for Gantry.  It is an absolute horror in trying to help people.  I was a very active individual in both using and helping people with their Gantry problems while in Google Groups but now I rarely help out in Gitter simply because trying to go back and follow all comments related to someones question as well as follow up questions, I would like to pull my hair out but I'm already bald.  I'm sure you really thought you were making a good move but it was a horrible move.

I jumped on Gitter and participated for a while but the moment I fell behind in the chat and didn't have time to read all the back comments, I too fell off. Found it less compelling than what we had here.

thanks, Luke !

a few months (years ?) ago, I already asked for it.
The Gitter System is not good for me because :

  • I can not retrieve the answers, so If I have a problem I Stay behind the screen waiting an answer
  • Sometimes I would like to help but did not know if the issue is solved
  • I can not use it as archive and it is not correctly searchable in Search Engine

If rocket theme don't want to promote the Google group, I propose that we'll do the job and tell others that we exist there.

And perharps we could help and be helped better than in Gitter


Regards,
Serge

Serge,


Good to hear from you again.  I will be checking this group at least once a week just to see if I can help as well as post issues I am having and may need someones input.  So let's all make a point to just drop in once a week and see if we can help as well as post our issues here. It doesn't mean we CAN'T still use Gitter but, I for one, will not be actively using Gitter unless they add subject oriented threads (yea, I know you can add your own conversations which appear in the left sidebar but that is only YOUR conversations, not group conversations.  I can't see other peoples conversations and other people can't see my conversations so how can I inject my comments into someone else's conversations if I have something useful to offer.  I can't and that is the problem with Gitter.

+1

Google Group is better than Gitter, and the official Forum is better
than Google Groups.

白建鹏 (Bai Jianpeng),

Yes, I have to admit, the official RT forums are great, if you really need interaction with the Gantry team.  However, many things are so general in nature that Google Groups really is a better forum so it doesn't clutter up the RT forums.  Gitter is just too limited.  I use all three, RT for when I need someone with RT to see it, Google Groups when I have an issue and Gitter for just looking at other people's issues to see if I can help them but I have yet to post any of my issues on Gitter.

Luke
