Community Support
Of course there is also community support. We have several mailing lists, a Bugzilla bug tracking system, and an IRC channel associated with the project.
IRC
Mailing Lists
Due to the prevelence of SPAM in the internet, ALL our mailing lists require subscribing before you can post to them. So be sure and subscribe, or don't try and post to them.
Pacemaker related questions
If you want to discuss not heartbeat, but pacemaker/CRM specific questions, you get better results at the Pacemaker mailing lists.
