[Chandler-dev] Chandler The Open Notebook? - New Landing Page and Product Tour

[Katie Capps Parlante]

Hi Andre,

Jared has also suggested making use of forums -- at the time we decided 
to stick with mailing lists while that held up. Perhaps we should indeed 
reconsider this idea for 1.0, for the reasons you mention.

Thanks for bringing it up.

Cheers,
Katie
