Rey:
Good spot, I can see why you made the "Evangelism Team". Some of you may think this is a bit of senseless damage control, but as our community grows larger, I believe that having someone monitor how the outside world views the project and its members very important. Far too often, I've seen projects rot from the inside out, members get cocky, leaders become withdrawn or apathetic and newbies take one look at the community and run. When a project no longer brings in new users, you'll find it quickly goes south. jQuery is popular not only because it's a great piece of code, but because we have a very active and receptive community. That community includes everyone, from the core development team to first time users, and each of us has a responsibility to maintain the level of professionalism that existed when we first joined. So keep on coding and don't be lame! - jake On 4/4/07, Rey Bango <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Thanks for the feedback Dean. I personally never want anyone to feel that the project condones harsh replies and I'll always do my best to manage that. I hope my email motivates everyone to police each other as well so that we're always looked at in a good light. Rey... -dean wrote: > Rey, > > Thanks for posting this.
