Dear all, time flies fast and we are already between one third and the half of this release cycle. I propose that we discuss what are the goals that we would like to acheive in Debian Squeeze.
In parallel, I am making a general ping of the members of our Alioth project. I think that it is good for a communauty that we know each other, and with the increasing number of members things are getting a bit anonymous. Also, quite a few take a very passive position – no commits, no actively maintained packages that we'd be aware of and no contributions to the mailing list. The goal of this ping is that the list of Alioth members reflects well the list of contributors. There is no urge in this housekeeping task, so I will wait September to re-try to contact those who will not have answered. The best way to answer this ping is to reply on the mailing list and share your plans for the future, but if you think that you do not have much to say, just reply me in private to tell me to either keep your account or to desactivate it and move your name to our hall of fame, where Thijs must feel a bit lonely for the moment ;) http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMedPastMembers Although the Alioth forge is not meant to be a communauty management tool, there is also the possibility to keep accounts with the ’doc-writer’ role for the people whose contribute by other ways than committing in the repository. Just let us know if you think it would be welcome. Lastly, even the obviously active members got this email sent to their Alioth account, because I simply pasted the members list from the following page to the following command: https://alioth.debian.org/project/memberlist.php?group_id=30063 cut -f1,2 | perl -ne 'chomp; chop; split /\t/; print " $_[0] <$_[...@debian.org>,\n"' | sed 's/guest@/gu...@alioth./' I hope your mailboxes will forgive me.
