Hi Noah, I waited for adding it to the homepage and also using the list at all until we have full git and github, as we currently have both svn and git in parallel running (jan reported this wednesday meeting). Maybe it is a first good task for the website group once we have git and github :)
I won't do any work on the homepage until then and I guess the others on www@ too. But feel free to add it now if you want! Maybe Jenn and the others can chime in (not sure if they are on dev) but maybe "Everything related to couchdb.apache.org" On Fri, Mar 20, 2015 at 7:07 PM, Noah Slater <[email protected]> wrote: > Should we add www@ to the homepage?
