Regional Support

Regional Representatives are distributed.net members all over the world, several per country, willing to answer questions or help people that need a more local (meaning in their native dialect) assistance. These people may also do translations of the web pages and/or maintain regional mailing lists. This is a relatively long-term commitment for people who are actively involved in distributed.net. If you can assist in this way, please e-mail our help address with a brief outline of your skills. :)

Notes

The e-mail address listed next to the country will send mail to all the representatives for that country.
Items below marked [non-local] indicate that the representative doesn’t live in that country. While we do prefer that regional representatives live in the country they represent (so that they may provide faster responses to questions), we welcome anyone who wants to help. A few of the representatives also have web pages listed, but please note that these are not official distributed.net pages.
Lastly, please note that our main email address for technical support in English is [help@distributed.net; help@distributed.net].
