thanks again @iwalker

not sure if my humble english would help me or not but will try

matermost is good for discussion and chat and brainstorming but if i create post in this forum or create post on twitter

so in twitter say we have y issue and if you could help check this forum for more details and then join our mattermost to participate in solving it and do all those agreement stuff

same thing if i have open source code in github for example and have issue i would post in the forum or social networks so other could give a hand  
so people do not have to read the whole code to know if there issue or not so i just direct them to it

not sure if that would good from marketing point of view but i look at it from community point of view

> Whether or not Alma produces betas is irrelevant - We did build a lot of the beta package set ourselves, so it is making it easier for us to actually build for our own 9.0 GA. While we wanted to provide the 9.0 beta, we hit too many snags and were not able to. And now that we have resolved a lot of the alt arch issues we were having with our new build system, we are striving to finish up the rest of the package set and tooling to produce a usable release candidate. If Alma releases 9.0 next week, good for them. If they need extra time to get things right, also good for them. They know what they’re doing as much as we know what we’re doing as well with the limited amount of volunteer time we have.

so a post that explain what those snags even if that snags cause the team is busy and has little time  
not sure if i miss understand you or miss understand anything else so sorry if i did

and have a nice day 🙂
