As you know, now most activity on discussing on internet concentrated in social networks, where Facebook is a worldwide popular. At this moment there are few localized pages, but steal no official page from developer, so MAKE IT!

Local communities: Spain - https://facebook.com/Open-Orienteering-Mapper-España-250958668361259/ Ukraine - https://facebook.com/OpenOrienteeringUkraine

I think that fb is not so much suitable for that, it would be better to go for something more forum-like. I recommend Google+. I can take care of it if developer don't have enough time

ghost commented 8 years ago

Its good if both G+ and FB pages will be created. Some people use only FB, some only G+.

Feel free to maintain user groups on FB or G+. Just don't claim it is official unless - well unless it is official, eventually. I will stay away from both FB and G+.

There was a proposal in #528 to have a separate repositiory here, e.g. "forum" or "mapper-users", and use the issues for discussion.

If you think there should be social share buttons on the web pages, I could add them in the social share privacy way.

Ok I will try to start and maintain G+. Btw What is official name of Mapper?, I seen : OOMapper, Open Orienteering, OpenOrienteering Mapper and many other combinations

Actually it is quite clear if you look at official artifacts (the frontpage of this repository, the "About dialog" of the app, the official web page, the user manual).

BTW: Another way is this one (users only have to click once there): https://github.com/heiseonline/shariff

It's to be done in the two-click way. We only have the static pages. (And heise.de is the root of both one-click and two-click solutions.)
