Given the number of questions relating to ABMaterial would it make sense to have a separate sub-forum under B4J questions?

1. Subforums are pretty hidden.
2. The search engine does a good job and you can easily find all ABMaterial related threads:

3. Subforums require more moderation.

Personally I don't like to add more sub-forums. If Alain thinks that it is important than I will reconsider it.

For me it isn't important. I can see why this comes up from time to time, but I think with a subforum you would miss out on a lot as both ABMaterial and other jServer questions tend to mix up (after all, ABMaterial is just a UI layer on top of B4Js WebApp framework). And I think this is really the major reason why I would leave everything as it is.

If it is an typical ABMaterial related question, I just add ABMaterial to my query, like 'ABMaterial connection problem'. It is a matter of habit. And if we would create sperate subforums, you would have one for questions, tutorials, etc... so we would create a monster.

I know ABMaterial has grown a lot in the last year exceeding my expectations and sometimes I feel I'm abusing this forum already :oops:
