+13just glanced at some of the postings about setting up a community site, so pardon me if you've already discussed this.
why not setup a google code project or use github? both are free, have wikis, and support both ticketing/bug reporting and version control.
it doesn't have to be based on a cms. a resource that integrates with git would be ideal, as that's what i use to version and manage all my other code and writing.
I'll help moderate. As my knowledge improves (thanks to this list), I
can also write some blog articles.

+35Same boat as you Criss.
But, sometimes it does help to have others not across the pond moderating.
Besides... We could gang up on Cem. :P
Regards,
Ben.
+11True, always happy to help and share articles and others articles as that's what I miss, real world examples and practices, as we all do things differently but it helps to learn how others do

+20Ok, I bit the bullet.
Ill have it set up in a few days. I have experience in forums (having had a few successful ones.) If anyone here is willing to be a moderator please let me know and we can chat.!

+31I'd like to moderate, and I would also like to contribute some blog style articles with tips and tricks using Casper.
+12I've been looking forward to something like this for a while. This is one of the best communities I've been involved in, and a mailing list is not the right venue in my opinion. I don't think I have enough time to dedicate to be a moderator, but I'll plan on contributing what I can.

+7Is there KB/Wiki for scripts and other useful info so it can be stored separate to the discussions?
It's a bit hard every time a thread comes up to track down another thread with the small script you need in it, instead there needs to be somewhere to reference them from.
Also I assume this isn't associated with the official JAMF community they are launching within the month?

+11Sorry discussion are not good for me, we have them here, we need a
repository for scripts and articles etc, not just discussions, hopefully
JAMF will bring us a perfect service,

+19I rather stick with Jamf solution instead of reinventing the wheel.
We all here on this list because of JamfSoftware in the first place. We shouldn't forget that...
Also they are monitoring this list as it helps them to help us.

+24Guys-
Hold up. Don't waste too much effort on these community sites. I got back from Minneapolis last week and can say with authority, "hold up and wait."
Sorry it's cryptic and void of details but I can't (and won't) go into details.

...Okay. If you say so...
Do you have a timeframe when we should just give up on waiting and go ahead anyway?
+20Hey Dave I just signed in and everything is ok!
