Talk:Data Ingestion Guidance

--Dpaul (talk) 16:49, 9 January 2014 (EST): Regarding data@idigbio.org now that DP has a gator link, does this mean I can be added to the mailing list that "sees" data@idigbio.org

Where do users send email if they have a question data@idigbio.org the feedback (or both)?

(At Morphbank, to keep this straightforward, all email requests for help go to morphbank@scs.fsu.edu We do not have 2 separate paths for help / issues requests. I am assuming (I think) that clicking to send "feedback" generates a Redmine ticket (efficient and transparent). But, data@idigbio.org is not transparent.
