<title>Important Notices</title>
<p>
Before posting a question or problem to any mailing list, please first
look at the following resources:
</p>
<ul>
<li><link href="site:documentation/faq">Forrest FAQs</link></li>
<li><link href="site:index">Forrest documentation</link></li>
<li><link href="http://cocoon.apache.org/link/">Cocoon Links</link>
(section: Related Topics)
for pointers to general XML and XSL and Java related resources.
Please do not ask such questions here unless they are related to Forrest.</li>
<li>Mailing list <link href="#Lists">archives</link>
- a veritable goldmine of Forrest-specific information.</li>
<li>Contribution <link href="contrib.html#tips">notes and tips</link>
(e.g. a clear subject heading; being patient).</li>
</ul>
<p>
If you are posting about a problem that you are having, it will aid in
finding a speedy resolution if you provide full configuration details,
including the version number of Forrest, your operating system, JDK
version, and servlet engine, and full details of any errors encountered
including full error messages and stack traces.
</p>
<note>
Please use our Jira <link href="site:bugs">issue tracker</link> to
submit attachments, rather than the mailing list. Create a new issue, if
necessary.
</note>
<p>
Please do not send emails directly to individual developers asking for
free support. We are non-paid volunteers who help out with the project
and we do not necessarily have the time or energy to help people on an
individual basis. Instead, we have these mailing lists which contain
many individuals who will help to answer. There are numerous benefits of
using mailing lists over private communication. It is a shared resource
where others can also learn from common mistakes and as a community we
all grow together. This discussion also builds a searchable
knowledge-base. Doing off-list discussion is not efficient: only one
person hears the answers and it will cause the volunteers to become
burnt out. See FAQ about <link href="site:faq/jobs">job offers</link>.
