Comment 26 for bug 392799

@ethana2

I'll second that your comment #24, and add some "spice".

LoCo's (the more local the better) are still the best way to get support to everyone. If every community (town, city) had a LoCo, there would be less need to use an IRC channel or channels or other queuing mechanisms for support. I will give you an example: tiny "Ubuntu Kootenay" provides support to two small towns (villages really). There are a few very committed folks in this remote part of BC that get out and spread Ubuntu goodness the old-fashioned way: feet on the street.

It's great that the community is trying to reduce the noise level on #ubuntu, but would that effort be better placed in promoting more localized support?
