The new Teams Area is starting to look smokin' hot. http:// wiki.osafoundation.org/Teams/WebHome

I think I've got a pretty consistent look and feel / layout going.

Team Page owners: Philippe (Apps), Katie (Platform, Ops, Desktop), Ted (Server, Community Area), Sheila (PPD), Aparna (QA), Bear (Build), Jared (Hosted Service Planning stuff)

Please review the verbiage describing your team. I've taken a pass at making the language more consistent and want to make sure I didn't do any damage in the process.

Questions: (Sheila, Ted, Priss, Jared and Katie you have special questions at the bottom.)
Silence will be taken as: Looks great! Do whatever you think best.

1. Are people okay with having the team member list in the RIGHTNAV? The idea here being that it gets that info out of the way so that you don't have to scroll as far to get to meeting notes. If so, please remove the People section in the body of your Team page. (I believe Apps, Platform and QA are the only ones with People in the body.)

As I see it the QA meeting notes do not appear in the RIGHTNAV. THose notes are each individual's journal notes. So the meeting notes will continue to reside in the main section. I will remove the People section since that is already covered in the RIGHTNAV.


+ If you have additional information that won't fit in the RIGHTNAV, perhaps we should have an "Areas of Responsibility" section in the body? + If you have more than just team members under people (e.g. Interns, people who have left) those can be in a section near the bottom? Not sure that stuff is important

I would prefer having the entire team list on the RIGHTNAV incl interns for 2 reasons:
1. we aren't dividing up the team into 2 sections
2. adding the interns to the RIGHTNAV would make them feel part of the team.

Ofcourse that adds the burden of removing the names once they leave but we would have to remove them from the main section anyways.


2. Do we generally want to have Meeting Notes closer to the top? Not necessarily for people on the team, but for community members watching our progress or other OSAF staff who want to keep up-to- date on what other teams are doing.

3. Should we agree on nomenclature? Old stuff, History = Archive?
+1


4. Also feel free now to edit the RIGHTNAV. I think the content has stabilized enough.

5. Are we ready to move the Topic-Level Team pages into the Teams Wiki area and rename them so that they match the page title? (e.g. Working Group and Project becomes Team. Cosmo becomes Chandler Server, etc.)

Sheila, if you're okay with the new PPD Team page, I can replace the old Design Group page with this one. http:// wiki.osafoundation.org/Teams/PPDTeam

I can link to the Design Group page from the PPDTeam page as an Archive item.

Ted, please check Community Area, I futzed around with the old Intro from CommunityHome: http://wiki.osafoundation.org/Projects/ CommunityArea

Priss, FYI, I have created a new OSAFSERVERSIDEBAR to replace the old OSAFCOSMOSIDER. http://wiki.osafoundation.org/Journal/ OSAFServerSidebar

I have created a new OSAFSAMPLESIDEBAR so that we can use it as a RIGHTNAV example for instructions without it getting in the way of any SERVERSIDEBAR pages. I can send out an updated version of her instructions to the Wiki Gardeners.

Priss, are you okay with that?

Jared, please check out the Ops Overview for Intro verbiage: http:// wiki.osafoundation.org/Projects/HostedServiceOpsOverview Also, is there a way to maybe put the roadmap diagrams on a separate content-level wiki page? The RIGHTNAV is getting pushed off the view right now. We could also put links to the roadmap diagrams in the RIGHTNAV.

Katie, I've created a Desktop Team RIGHTNAV template for you to use: http://wiki.osafoundation.org/Journal/OSAFDesktopSidebar
