[Psi-Devel] Fwd: PSI site - wiki, documentation issues

[Hal Rottenberg]

Justin, I think the answer to all of your questions is based on who your
potential audience is. If you are fine with attracting only the geeks on
this mailing list, then github and no forum is fine. If, on the other hand,
you want, what was her name? Aunt someone? Anyway, Joe User needs a website,
a forum, and these days, a social media presence.

Pick an audience...
