Do not post through Google Groups, as doing so breaks the above rules and makes extra work for the moderator (Reference)
Please think twice about cross-posting your questions on StackOverflow -- StackOverflow is not where you go when you want to reach the Mercurial community. You should instead use the mailing lists described here or our IRC channel.
