Re: [ilugd] linux.in status
Hi all, What I would propose/add to that is you guys could also think of having a federated service like planetplanet (http://www.planetplanet.org/) so that once a person has written something and you have the RSS feed, the content would be there automatically. Its a suggestion, would be interested what people think of it. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
Re: [ilugd] linux.in status
How about we restart with linux-india.org (I can put up a wordpress or a drupal there) and see, over a period of 6 months or so, whether the community is actually capable of maintaining it or not? If we are, we can start moving the process to retrieve linux.in too. If you put in Wordpress/Drupal, I volunteer to be editor and get things going. Once started, we would need more volunteers but I can certainly commit to starting it off!

Beyond that, I think it might be worthwhile putting down some points as to what the target should / could be. There are a few people offering to help with content as well, if there is some direction we could have people take over responsibility for different things. One thing that I would love to see is a newsletter or a summary of 'stuff' linux related, perhaps done monthly. Another would be a directory of regional resources that new linux users could be pointed at. Perhaps a 'blog' like resource that allows people to post articles into, and a wiki would be good ( for things like howto get online with the various isps' in the country, configs and other tips etc ). Even if we can get 10 - 12 people, contributing an hour or so per week, there is much that can be done :) -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522...@icq ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
