As you seem to have been on the beta group for some time you could help eliminate some of that discussion with a single post pointing people to previous topics on the same subject. If a topic starts

I do, especially if they are themselves totally unfamiliar with basic functionality, as in the recent case. And if the suggestion is something that already exists, I think we can trust Mark to

This conversation itself is a meta-case in point. I suggested a "suggestion box." And yet there is argument about it. I would suggest that people just let Mark decide. -- J Messages are the sole

They don't always have to understand it. That's Mark's job. I suggested an unbelievably trivial feature today (or was it yesterday?) and the resulting conversation was over the top. (a) He HAS said

But that is part of the process, people want to understand exactly what is being suggested, and then sometimes there is brainstorming to improve the suggestion, which is mostly, if not always

Bottom line, this group has turned into a modified GMF. People seem to think that after someone makes a suggestion, it's their job to find out exactly what the suggestion consists of, and/or receive a

Just like the support@groups.io address evolved to handle bugs, there could be suggestions@groups.io for people who prefer to use that instead of beta sometimes. -- J Messages are the sole opinion

But (1) open discussion in beta is not supposed to consist mainly of “hey, never heard of the existing feature, what is it, how does it work, and by the way here’s how to do it”; and (2) feature

That would tend to defeat the open discussion policy that the beta group was formed to provide. -- Gerald

HI Andy, I've fixed this. Thanks, Mark

Hi, Is it possible for multi-day events to be summarised on the first day of the event when displaying the calendar in the list format? This would be very helpful for the way in which my local

I hope that an email address could be set up for very simple feature requests to avoid beta turning into a tutorial. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My

If you set up a guidelines notice for your group, a new menu item will appear in the left sidebar called "Guidelines". 1. Your Group > Admin > Settings > Member Notices > New Notice 2. Notice type =
