Hi IanW,

In addition to Owen's suggestion, feel free to come chat with us on IRC.
Check out a tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2Pv8KEB1sM

The link to the webchat is here:

Cheers,
/Kunda

FYI
folks are in different parts of the world so the availability may vary.
Also people aren't ignoring you if you don't hear an answer. Most likely
their IRC clients are idling.
