   Sure, and also the developer likes to communicate in his forum at   
   http://linuxmint.com/forum/   
      
   .... and also there are 15 pages of mint chatter cleverly hidden away in   
   the ub forums under -  Community Discussions > Community Discussions >   
   Other OS Talk >  Linux Mint Talk

   Personally I would rather /converse/ and interact nntp in newsgroups   
   rather than with a browser in a forum, but sometimes I don't mind too   
   much /reading/ things like that.
