General Discussion, questions, and Help
Additionally, there is a mailing list for general discussion, questions, and help. There is moderate volume on this list (about 100 messages a month) and this is the best place to get answers or help using GPSBabel. When asking a question, be sure to include version numbers, the name of the operating system, and details of any programs or hardware involved.

This is a subscriber-only list; you must join in order to post to it as we've been overrun with evil spammers. List confirmation is normally quick, though there may sometime be delays of up to a few hours before you can post. You can configure your received message options in a variety of ways.
Development Discussions
There is a list for development discussion on GPSBabel. This is where the programmers fix problems, have design and implementation decisions, and post code for review and integration by the programmers responsible for GPSBabel. Even if you're not a bit-slinger yourself, it can be educational and sometimes entertaining.
