## Keep in touch with VNC developments

Please, before sending any questions either to us or to the mailing list, make sure you've checked the FAQ! There are several ways to keep in touch with developments in VNC:

Join the mailing list. This is the most important. If you don't know what a mailing list is or how it works, have a look at this introduction. You can add yourself to or remove yourself from the mailing lists by sending commands in the body of an email to majordomo@orl.co.uk. For example:

`subscribe vnc-list`

This asks for your name to be added to the list. More details will then be sent to you. You can remove yourself from the list in the same way, by using 'unsubscribe' instead of 'subscribe'. Note that these should be sent to 'majordomo' and not to the list itself! If your mailer modifies your email address on the way out, you will be subscribed under this modified name, which can make unsubscribing difficult, particularly if the mailer changes it to something different at a later time, so if you like you can specify the email address to be used:

`subscribe vnc-list myaddress@company.com`

There is a second mailing list called vnc-list-digest which carries the same messages, but will just send you one message a day containing all of the last day's messages. You may prefer this to the standard list, particularly if your mail reader won't filter the traffic into a separate folder for you. To subscribe:

`subscribe vnc-list-digest`

You can also just send the command '`help`', to get more detailed instructions.

The archives of the mailing list are available here, and you can search them here.

Check these web pages regularly. If you're looking at a mirror of the main ORL site, click here for the master version.

Darxus@op.net has created a VNC channel in IRC. For information on how to join it, see his web page.

If you need to contact the developers directly, send email to vnc@orl.co.uk. Because of the level of interest in VNC we cannot reply personally to all messages sent here, though we do promise to read them all! The mailing list is a much better method of contact; others may have solved your problem before, and may be able to help if we're not available.

We're interested in any and all feedback, but new features & bug fixes are much more likely to be incorporated if you send us sample code showing how to accomplish them!

For comments, feedback, etc, please see the 'Keeping in touch' page.
