Re: YOUR action is needed to get the Community Updates up running again
Hi! OM isn't working on the software for our phones any more and it looks like that also the releasing of Community Updates (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Community_Updates) has stopped (actually the 'news' link has been removed from wiki main navigation). Brenda Wang wrote: Two days ago, I read the documentation list, there's some request about the link of wiki side bar. So I removed the news' link from wiki main navigation two days ago. http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td2943035|a2952101 I will add it back when next updates released. Regards Brenda Wang So we have to do it. I think it's vital for the community to have some kind of newsletter that allows one to have a quick look at what's happened, if you don't follow the mailing lists and IRC daily. I started the draft page here for the next updates: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Talk:Community_Updates/June_25%2C_2009 Please add there everything that's happened since May 22nd. Adding news 1. Don't trust that someone else will add it, add it yourself and make it clean 2. Add links to blog posts, applications, mailing list posts that you think are worth to announce to the whole community Releasing 1. If it's The Release Date and you notice the news has not been released, DO IT! Don't trust that someone else will do it for you. 2. When you release, move the content of Talk: page to the actual wikipage. 3. Add a link to the released update page to http://wiki.openmoko.org/index.php?title=Community_Updates 4. Prepare the draft page for the next community news: captions, dates etc.. Releasing news on Thursdays every two weeks sound's good to me. 5. Send a post to the community mailing list with the link to the released news and the draft of the next news.

The same for other tasks, there are few human resources, we need organization and coordination. I fully agree, this kind of information is very difficult to find. I think providing this information might increase confidence that the community is alive. Personally, I'm curious who are the people that are doing development, or whatever for the Openmoko project. I'm wondering whether people are employed by Openmoko, sponsored or hacking away in their free time. Updating this page is probably a good start: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Who_is_Who I encourage the developers/maintainers/contributors of the different distributions to elaborate a little bit about the latest developments in the community updates. It's quite difficult to get an idea of the maturity/liveliness of the different distributions. Thanks to all who is contributing to the Openmoko community!
