Harald,
please calm down. I know from your blog how upset you are from setting
up the new office location, networks and servers during Taifun time.
in fact that was the most fun part.
But just one question to answer for yourself: do you want to have
community involvement or not?
I am from the community ;) And not in my 10+ years of FOSS community
development have I seen any project that had problems with properly
using mailinglists.
Forums are for people who don't understand the technology of properly
dealing with e-mails. Of what use is something that's only available
online? Of no use at all. Try keeping a local copy of a forum on your
laptop. Why should openmoko be any different?
We will most likely have a forum for _end users_ at a time where we want
to address end users. But not for developers, sorry.
Now as your network appears to work again, please focus on solving kernel,
uboot, etc. issues that we as the "dumb users" can't solve ourselves.
I am for example still fighting the issue with short and long rootfs
flashing and NAND erasing, that leaves an inoperable OpenMoko device
If you consider yourself a "dumb user", then you probably are not the
kind of developer crowd that we are addressing at this moment :(
