Although we strive to provide as much support and documentation as we can, in the end there is a lot of material. this is a good thing of course because it directly relates to the massive potential for customization. Still it is easy to miss stuff, and there is a learning curve that can be a bit overwhelming.
It is really worth taking some time with the wiki though, especially since Nim5ter has been doing a great job of updating it. On the main page of the wiki there is a custom search tool which searches all of the forum and the wiki and is very useful I think. When I have time I will probably put this search box on the main site and the forum as well.
I am thinking it is time to start trying to organize some VoxCommando hangouts again. We could focus on one person at a time and doing some problem solving, but in a public hangout so that others could watch and potentially pose questions. If a few people have issues or just need some training, we could go through people one at a time.
Only problem is that I really want to focus on gettings the first beta of VC 2.0 out the door ASAP. In the mean time, it would be great if someone wanted to pick up the reins here in terms of organizing hangouts. Finding a time that works for people and making sure that as many people as possible know about it. If someone wanted to do that, I would find the time to attend.
We are talking about free one on one support here, from the developer (well, maybe not one on one, but one at a time) so it seems that new users who want to get a leg up should take advantage of this. I should point out that these hangouts should focus on solving problems and educating people, and not on idle chit chat. A little bit of this is fine, but it is easy to blow an hour of time and get nothing done and I am not interested in that.
