What support is provided?
We will freely provide answers and provide some limited support to help get sites up and running with the SRB. There is a srb-chat email list for SRB admins, developers and users to discuss questions, problems, and solutions (it includes an archive of previous posts). Our web site includes information on current bugs, future plans, current projects, etc. The SRB tar release contains many README files to explain installation and operation. Of course, many of our activities are collaborative funded projects which include specific development tasks and more extensive support.
