I want a mailing list do DOERS (those who do something for foss rather then sitting and doing mailing list work).. So a dedicated network for FOSS promoters.. Or you can say.. a mailing list for all FOSS advertiser and promoters.. This dedicated mailing list can produce WhitePaper on status of FOSS and recommendation as well as give a report on what need to be done.. "What need to be done" -- this is a most important aspect... We all are singing.. (like in bazzar.. everybody try to sell his veg ).. so I think, FOSS promotion should have a strategy in it.. .. > > > I basically > > recommend TASK - based mailing list...
