Mailing List

A mailing list named datavision-users@lists.sourceforge.net has been created for the discussion of tips, tricks, suggestions, bugs, and workarounds. You must be a member of the list to post to the list. This requirement was added to avoid spam.

To see the complete list of DataVision mailing lists (there is only one so far), visit the DataVision Mailing Lists page on SourceForge.

The datavision-users mailing list has its own mailing list users page where you can subscribe, see the archived list of messages, and edit your preferences.

The User's Manual and FAQ translations won't be shipped with DataVision; they would increase the size of the download for everyone too much. Instead, they will be hosted here and downloadable archives will be made available.
