Just a random question as I have lots of questions to ask, is there any active Chat group for ROS? I have quite a few questions and really don't want to spam the word (people have already been really helpful)

Technical questions are best asked here, on ROS Answers (after having searched for similar questions and answers). For more general discussion, https://discourse.ros.org may be appropriate. There used to be a ROS Slack organization (essentially a chat room), but it has been phased out in favor of https://discourse.ros.org I believe. Ditto for the mailing list.

I think I have that one and 2 others on my Kindle, the issue I have is time (kids) plus I feel I am nearly there.

I absolutely agree. With as many of us involved in this, it shouldn't be too much of a task to get such a chat group going. I love answers as a resource, but whether you get a response is totally random... Time is valuable, for all of us, what can I do to help promote this idea?

For what it's worth, asking questions here is beneficial to everyone because people having the same problem in the future are more likely to find it.

There's also a (non-official) chat room on chat.freenode.net called #ros, for those of you interested in chatting in an IRC channel.
