I don't think it necessarily has to be a separate project, per se - I think it can be a regular feature in our discussions on the desktop-discuss list [see recent mail]. As much as possible though, I think we can contribute upstream, as there's a lot more value in that. > i thought Glynn Foster mentioned that there would be community mailing > lists available. if we have that, and it would be very hepful to have > a SVN repository so we don't have to send each other patches as email > attachments, i believe this is sufficient. also because we would like > to give the main projects (GNOME, KDE, Mozilla, OOo, fd.o, etc) access > to our source code changes so we can easily merge them back into > their trees. we do *not* want to give the slightest impression that we > are trying to fork or split a new source tree. this is a Big Taboo and > it leads to conflicts. Yep, we have the first mailing list set up. The website isn't quite there yet, and a SCMS is a little far off right now - see http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=1189&tstart=0 for details.
