Hi All,
Lenya is a platform. Our community is:
Users - Editors and Administrators using the GUI. They almost never
post to the MLs; they are typically supported by an administrator at
their organization. We rarely see posts like "How do I edit a page?"
Developers - Application developers adding functionality to
Publications. We expect their questions on the user ML; they usually
post to the dev ML.
Platform Developers - Committers and others contributing to the Lenya
platform. We expect the dev ML to handle these discussions, but
questions from the second group interfere.
I propose a new ML for discussing Lenya platform development. While
"dev" is traditional for a project's development team,
it's not actually, but rather the name "dev" is misleading, because
people associate it with "developers". In my opnion it should be renamed
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] because this list should not be
reserved for the development team of lenya but rather be about
development, no matter if someone is part of the development team or not
The same is true for "users", which I think should be renamed to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
the name
confuses our community. An ML named "platform" or "base" would avoid
the confusion. ("core" might seem to exclude modules, translations,
and other important platform work. "commits" has a specific use.)
Thoughts?
I don't think the current traffic is enough reason to introduce another
mailing list, but I rather think
one should rename the mailing lists as suggested above
users -> usage
dev -> development
and add a clear description to
http://lenya.apache.org/community/ml.html
which would make it clearer (than without description)
Cheers
Michael
