From cb6fd280af4858e2ad5ff2d68b56a5e0021395ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brendan Abolivier Date: Fri, 1 May 2020 17:27:22 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add a section about support to the top of the README (#7392) Continuation of #7379 Adds a section in the README telling people to go to #synapse:matrix.org instead of using github issues. I'm not entirely sure about placing it above the install section but then people are likely to first seek support when installing (if something goes boom), and it's probably better to have it as high as possible anyway so people actually see it. --- README.rst | 11 +++++++++++ changelog.d/7392.doc | 1 + 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+) create mode 100644 changelog.d/7392.doc diff --git a/README.rst b/README.rst index 49fca2aba..677689bc0 100644 --- a/README.rst +++ b/README.rst @@ -85,6 +85,17 @@ Thanks for using Matrix!
