  37 Hi there, from the network who was the first to use this software.  :)
  38
  39 Is there any way to tone down the references to EsperNet in the
  40 documentation and the source code?  I periodically get requests for
  41 support in #dragonweyr, EsperNet's official help channel, which I always
  42 refer to Andy Church's page, <A HREF="http://achurch.dragonfire.net/services.">http://achurch.dragonfire.net/services.</A>
  43
  44 Some of whom stubbornly--sometimes rudely--mitigate said requests by
  45 saying they're not code questions, but operational questions, when in fact
  46 the channel is solely for the use of our users, and operational questions
  47 do entail the use of the code.
  48
  49 I hope I haven't come off like I'm griping or anything, but some people do
  50 not understand that while Services did have their start on EsperNet, our
  51 administration channel is not the place to get support for it.  Like the
  52 other networks I see represented here, we're just another satisfied user
  53 of the software.
  54
  55 While our staff and I appreciate the recognition, we're IRC operators, and
  56 any work that we do on the code we do is to get the code to run on our own
  57 servers and for any customizations we might make for our own purposes and
  58 of course, bugfixes where we see them.  (Any bugfixes we'll be more than
  59 happy to have rolled into the core source distribution.)
  60
  61 However, I personally might try running the software under other
  62 environments to which I have access for portability reasons and for
  63 reasons of fun.
  64
  65 Thanks. :)
