<br>
The office where I work has mostly converted to free software, but sometimes<br>
people don't know what website to go to to look for help.<br>
<br>
It seems that each distro has it's own forums, and most projects have their<br>
own forums or mailing lists, and then there are some general sites like<br>
<a href="http://linuxquestions.org" target="_blank">linuxquestions.org</a> (or <a href="http://google.com/linux" target="_blank">google.com/linux</a>).<br>
<br>
These are great for you and I, but not for someone who doesn't know the name<br>
of the project that develops the application they're using, or for someone<br>
who wouldn't think that they have to search three sets of forums.  Can<br>
anyone recommend an umbrella site or portal that I could send them to?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
