*** FAQ's ***
Q. How is this forum different from the Software forum?
A. The Software forum is geared at discussion of poker related software, including programming tools/scripts specific to poker and threads about specific poker applications. Discussion of specific functionality of a poker application would be better placed in the Software forum; discussion of what language/database to use if you're building a poker application would be appropriate in either forum; discussion of what language/database to use if you're building a web application would be appropriate in this forum.
Q. Nerds!
A. Haters gonna hate.
