Why not we have a scilab forum?

[leeyee]

Hi guys,
I'm a scilab user, I'm wondering why we have no forum for this nice software? Anyone can give me a light that where can I communicate with others? or just a IRC channel will also be okay.
Thank you in advance!

Hi leeyee! I think the reason is that, being an Ubuntu bulletin board, it would just be impossible to have a separate forum for each piece of software out there. I think that if you have a certain question, you can just ask it under Desktop Support and if someone knows the answer, they will reply.

Or, you could start a thread related to Scilab alone. It might not be as efficient as a forum, but might do the job.

Not practical.

Hopefully in the future their would be a common forum for all Univesity/Sciences/Math/Engineering etc which would include stuff like Scilab.
