- Dear Mosaic'ers,
-
- The email load related to Mosaic from all over the world is crushing
- my poor little Indigo. This is *wonderful*, and this level of
- external feedback has greatly contributed to the current success of
- the Mosaic project (both internally at NCSA and in the outside world).
-
- We are in the process of putting together a support team to deal
- efficiently and thoroughly with Mosaic questions, comments, bug
- reports, and general feedback; this support structure will be moving
- into place over the next few months. We are also in the process of
- generating real documentation, including printed beginner-level user
- guides and the like, for general distribution and use.
-
- So, two comments.......
-
- (a) Please send Mosaic-related correspondence (up to and including bug
- reports) to mosaic-x@ncsa.uiuc.edu whenever possible. That way,
- all relevant support people (as well as myself) will automatically
- get copies of all incoming messages, which will help the
- preparation and execution of our support plan considerably.
-
- (b) Please don't be discouraged if you don't get a response to a
- question, comment, or bug report immediately. In particular,
- please don't *stop* sending feedback to us if we haven't responded
- to previous messages in a timely enough manner -- I read, and will
- continue to read, everything that comes in, but I just don't have
- enough time in the day to answer every message myself anymore
- (which is why we're putting together a real support team). Every
- message you send us is valuable feedback that will be read and, to
- the best of our ability, acted upon. Over time, we will try to
- catch up and reply to any messages that have slipped by me over
- the past few months and that inadvertently slip through the cracks
- as the support structure falls into place now..... in fact, I'm
- shortly going to dump the contents of my Mosaic mail folders
- (about 12 megs worth) from the last few months on our support
- people, so they'll undoubtedly have plenty to do right off the
- bat.
-
- So, the bottom line is....... keep the feedback and questions coming!
-
- Cheers,
- Marc
