the .org proposal or join forces
Hi As discussed on irc I start a thread about the .org proposal. Ok at first a short summary. As all of you know we are organized in local teams. There is a french team, a german team, and so on Well there are reasons for that. Some tasks have to be done alone (for example a german translation). But there are many tasks especially in the development where we have to stick together. Of course we are all working on developer.skolelinux.no and so the developers are already working together. But nevertheless we can stick more together with the .org proposal, means: What about working more on www.skolelinux.org and doing blogs on planet.skolelinux.org, getting email accounts on @skolelinux.org and having a space called people.skolelinux.org . So we can provide general information of the development of Skolelinux/Debian-Edu there (of course in english). If we agree there is an other topic which has to be discussed here: As a few of you know in the german team we started a process called New Member Process were we take care of the new member and see that we can integrate him/her and that he/she can get the work he/she wants to do. (It would be nice if someone else from the german team can describe the process here!!!). To summarize the intention of the .org-proposal in one sentence let me say: We are one project and we should stick together and join forces and we have to show it, so let the skolelinux development become stronger with that. I hope that I can make it clear what the .org-proposal means and why i started this thread. Greetings Steffen pgpfV22RdSRd3.pgp Description: PGP signature

I think that each team don't really know what the others do, thus maybe some stuffs will be done twice, and that's the bad way.

But I hope not so hard than becoming official debian developper ;) To summarize the intention of the .org-proposal in one sentence let me say: We are one project and we should stick together and join forces and we have to show it, so let the skolelinux development become stronger with that.

Re: the .org proposal or join forces
Hello Stefen Thanks for this proposition, For the first topic: Several month ago, as we started to work in the project, we're told to not work too much on skolelinux.org ... The plone system has a lot of bug, and everything will be migrated to an Ezplubish system ... this work, made by Alex B. was announced for september 2005 ... For the french team, we've translated all the waiting pages on the portal... Therefor i agree with your proposal to work more on skolelinux.org As far as I can see, the're not a lot of new things on the portal. To enforce your proposal, if the plone system is still a problem, we can propose to replace it with a Spip system, which is powerfull free CMS. see http://www.spip.net/en For the second topic: The Debian-edu developper program is a very goog idea. The goal is to win new participants, we just have to take care on this process to make the participation easier...not harder... I think that the welcoming of new participants is a part of this project, were we have to bo better than what is done at the moment. For this a topic on this subject would be usefull Thierry French Skolelinux team Steffen Joeris [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi As discussed on irc I start a thread about the .org proposal.

So we can provide general information of the development of Skolelinux/Debian-Edu there (of course in english). snip/ Yes! But why of course in english? The german team is researching and evaluating software for quite some time now to come up with a technical solution which has to provide us with... . different tools (cms/portal, wiki, blog, planet, email, ...) . all this integrated -- as seemless as neccessary -- into a whole site . support for different workflow (from none/loose to specific) . flexible but efficient support for responsabilities . good support for translation of all relevant pieces of the site . decent syntax-/file-/doctypes support and import/export mechanisms Its intended to be the base for a renewed portal which can and *is* used by as many Debian-edu'ers and Free Schoolsoftware activists as possible. (In opposite to the not-so-well-connected 'portals' used by the different groups up to now.) Biggest hurdle since the beginning: To have the technical basement for an /integrated/ easy and nice translation workflow. Not everyone of us wants to have to work with DocBook- and .po-files for getting the job done. ;-) We regard this as a key feature. As i've looked at those french wikipages (that were just recently mentioned as the french guys asked for CVS) i realized that there are quite some things going on which lack attention, reviewing and translation by/for all of us. A good shared portal should attenuate this itch. My 2 cent.

[Patrick Willam] But why of course in english? Because so few of you are able to read Norwegian Nynorsk? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
