Open issues

  • The number of people seeking help will go from 0 to lots as soon as we flip the switch. Do we know the server will be able to handle the load? Contributors likely won't go from 0 to lots, it'll be a gradual ramp-up. Will we be able to help everyone quickly?
    • Make some estimates for the traffic we'll get.
    • Can we throttle the number of users that reach the forums?
  • What legal requirements are there for showing users the terms of use?
  • Do we have a way of automatically gather the QoS metrics yet?
