Hi! [You are receiving this mail because either you are suscribed to the ubuntu-devel-discuss/ubuntu-qa ML or you are registered as a moderator in Ubuntu Brainstorm]
Hardy is now out, and the UDS and FOSScamp are next. The ideas at the Ubuntu Brainstorm website will, or will not be a great source of inspiration during these events, we will see. Meanwhile, if you are interested as an Ubuntu developer to discuss how to make the website more efficient for you, to discuss its mechanism, or if you are interested as a Brainstorm moderator to comment your tools, please join the new Brainstorm Mailing list at https://launchpad.net/~brainstorm-dev. I would also like to take this opportunity to introduce an idea that I see as a natural follow-up to the Brainstorm website: an event similar to the Google Summer of Code, that would be launched every development cycle. Basically the concept would be similar to GSoC except that the motivation factor would not be money but the fact that the contribution would be included in Ubuntu's next version (granted it is completed on time). The event would cover Ubuntu "extensions", and involves coding, but also packaging, documentation, i18n, .... A proposed schedule would be: selection of tasks at the UDS, one month for the "pupils" selection process, and the time remaining before feature freeze to complete the tasks. Finally, to make potential contributors benefit from it, the "pupils" would be asked to put online a "report" where they would explain how they worked. That's a rough idea yet that I'd like to discuss at the FOSScamp if people are interested.
