I was exchanging some personal mail with Mr. AlRasheedan and something he said triggered this thought. Upon reflection on what Ossama has been doing recently, I thought I'd suggest it to see what you guys think about it in general (keep in mind it a mere suggestion, no more no less).
Why not have ALL the translators work on ONE project per week at a time ? Recent posts here and elsewhere have noted that various people are getting very bored from working alone. This suggestion would certainly solve that problem. The idea is to have all the translators get assigned by the project manager files to work on for that one week (ie. you get a file, you finish it and ask for more :-). Once the week is up all move to another project and so on. So for instance, let's assume we have 4 translators on this "roaming gang" plan :-) they would all get assigned files to work on by Arafat.Me (Gnome coordinator) for one week, once the week is over they all move on to say Wordlist and get files assigned to them (by Asr/Ossama) once a week passes by they all move on to say Mandrake, then Fedora then KDE then... I think you get the picture ;-) There are obviously some negatives associated with this idea, + coordination might be hectic until a rhythm is established + not working on the one thing you love/like + etc but it does seem to solve a couple of recent boredom and loneliness issues and would seem to make things more fun (the more productive hands in something, the more fun). As noted just a thought. Comments/Suggestions/Ideas/Replies ? Salam. - Nadim __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
