Hi! all, Would you guys stop this B***s***t discussion of "old members" vs "new members". By nay standards I am in Open source world far longer than most (almost all) the so called "new members". Just that few people discovered the ubuntu India bit later than you guys. So its in betterinterest of the whole community that you guys drop the ego of being "old members"
Coming to the discussion, how many times do we need to reiterate about the horrible state of navigation on ubuntu-india website ? All the solution proposed by so called "old members" will maintain the statuts quo of the site and notsolve the biggest mennace on the site which is "navigation". May i ask the the guys who are shouting about more contribution, how will more content help in locating the content on the website ? No the so called "new members" are not here to overturn any regime, these guys are here to improve the website. If you hold the site to your chests nothing new will happen. It is normal for "old members" of any community to resist change because when something new comes it creates a new way of doing things and requires new methods of learning. But we have seen an example of 58 yrs old guy trying to learn Ubuntu, have some shame and atleast try to look the POV of the someone who is suggesting you a new thing. I can lecture on this for hours but no use because my lecture will not solve the real problem, "navigation" and organization of content on ubuntu India website. I have NOT SEEN EVEN A SINGLE EMAIL BY "OLD MEMBERS" ON THIS ISSUE. Stop beating your own drums and come in sync with real world. And please before ranting on the mailing list *try to re read the email". This is not some "frustoo center" where you can come and take out your frustrations in terms of long rants and egoistic behavior. Even so called "new members" have jobs in hand, they also work for long hours in a day. Let me reiterate the purpose of this email thread "We need a overhaul on the Ubuntu India website in terms of restructuring of content, better navigation and a new decent look and feel". No we are not looking at a 6 month campaign to increase contribution and please the so called "old members" can start a new thread on how to increase the contribution. So guys just put some constructive ideas into the thread. regards VK -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
