Hello Everyone,

We are a group of engineering students from IIT Delhi, India. I, myself
took part in Google Summer Of Code 2012 under Scilab organization.

Working with scilab, i found out that there is a lot of information present
in the archives of mailing list. Similarly a lot information is present on
bugzilla.scilab.org, scilab help, stackoverflow and other important
resources and documentations.

What we aim is to structure and organize the information. The information
present on web is -
1) Scattered (information related to scilab is present in different places)
2) Unstructured and unorganized
3) Unused (as in case of archives of scilab mailing list)


We have built a platform (www.daqwest.com) which aims at systematically
tackling each of these issues and build an ideal format which leads to a
cleaner, more organized and highly quality information.


For example, check out--> http://daqwest.com/quests/207/search?search=plot3d

, http://daqwest.com/quests/207/search?search=call_scilab

This leads to the platform which has definition, examples, results from the
huge archives of mailing list, stackoverflow questions, bugzilla issues.
And the related terms.

More --> http://daqwest.com/quests/207/search?search=installation%20problem,
http://daqwest.com/quests/207/search?search=ilib_for_link


Similarly check out the maling list platform-->
http://daqwest.com/quests/207/qs/2902

This is a thread on the subject "use of fsolve". There are tags on the
right side which link this thread to other threads,bugs, stackoverflow
questions. Moreover, by clicking on "fsolve", you can traverse through all
the threads related to "fsolve".

There are a lot of interesting features of the mailing list platform -:

   - Spam-free mailing list
   - Interactive User Interface
   - Beautiful and Responsive Editor
   - Mails linked through tags
   - Send invites to join the Mailing List
   - Colored Code Blocks


Join the scilab quest :)

Waiting for your feedbacks and suggestions !!!


Thanks and Regards
