Can you talk a little bit about what we changed [in Ask a Developer]?

TL;DRAsk a Developer is now split by team and discipline, with teams worldwide setting schedules, so newcomers can more easily find a place to get questions answered and more developers can answer.

Well, we changed the Ask a Developer. Some people know Rob Irving, know what question to ask Rob Irving. A lot of people, they're coming out, this is their first space sim, they don't know the team, so now we're dividing it by the different teams, so there's Hangar, Dogfighting, General, and then it's divided by what people do, programming, different disciplines. So now you can easily find a place to get your questions answered, and all the different teams around the world are setting up schedules so that everybody will be in there in the Ask a Dev threads now.

And it just makes it easier to manage.

Not even to manage, it's easier to get your questions answered.

But it also opens up the number of people that can answer, and that's a good thing for everybody.

I'm sure Dave Haddock will still do like 80% of it.
