| 25 | --------- |
| 26 | Currently, there exists only an IRC channel, ``#reclass`` on ``irc.oftc.net``, |
| 27 | where you may stop by to ask questions. When usage grows, I'll set up |
| 28 | a mailing list. If you're using `Salt`_, you can also ask your |
| 29 | |reclass|-related questions on the mailing list, ideally specifying |
| 30 | "reclass" in the subject of your message. |

| 37 | About the name |
| 38 | -------------- |
| 39 | "reclass" stands for **r**\ ecursive **e**\ xternal node **class**\ ifier, |
| 40 | which is somewhat of a misnomer. I chose the name very early on, based on the |
| 41 | recursive nature of the data merging. However, to the user, a better paradigm |
| 42 | would be "hierarchical", as s/he does not and should not care too much about |
| 43 | the implementation internals. By the time that I realised this, unfortunately, |
| 44 | `Hiera`_ (Puppet-specific) had already occupied this prefix. Oh well. Once you |
| 45 | start using |reclass|, you'll think recursively as well as hierarchically at |
| 46 | the same time. It's really quite simple. |
