Comment (by alick):

 Hi, sorry for jumping in without following up the previous discussions.

 Overall, I am +1 for this idea since it helps identify our user bases in
 groups (organizations, schools, companies). It can be more than stats too.
 Hopefully it provides incentives to attract new group users and
 facilitates communications between them.

 About the drafts, for the Affliates page, I think it'll be good to add
 more WIIFM points. For example, to show support for Fedora and FOSS in
 general, to make their contributions officially recognized, to learn from
 experiences from peer organizations, etc.

 About the badge, I'm not sure how the badge awarding process will work
 (for groups)? Maybe it will be awarded to the current coordinators from
 each group? It seems good since it encourages them to join FAS if they
 have not. But we need to consider the "handover" from old coordinators to
 new ones.

 About the information to include, I'd suggest to add an (optional) image
 as a showcase/proof. One image is worth a thousand words!

 I prefer the approval process is lightweight. Say a wiki page for
 submissions, and a few dedicated moderators review them and move the
 information to an "official" wiki page. The latter page is thus not be
 edited by others.

 Finally, I kinda doubt "Affliates" the most right word in such context...
 Is there a better way to say "Non-individual" users?

 Regards,

 Alick

James,


Sweet article.  Like the fact you highlight that you have  full control
but  with the mention and non-discouragement of  using a non dispora.org
pod  maybe a quick blurb about the linker/shortener [1] may be in order
in the event you or others are unawares it is a  profile linkage and
shortener that allows for use across all supporting pods. Mine is below
[2] which can allow someone like myself whom originally  started with
https://diasp.in (thanks to c0mrad for the invite :) ) to use there
alias across all pods.

John,
 
Very sorry but I won't be back home today to do the featured image as
hoped - something personal has come up. Hope someone else has the time?

Ashutosh,


At the very least this email got thru, so however you sent this one (or 
reply to this one) with your pitch.  Also out of  curiosity  did you
mention at last Commops / Mrktg meetings?

Look forward to pitch and article..
