Hi all,thanks for all your replies concerning the "next step mailing list". Since this is a short summary, I do reply to my initial mail ... SUMMARY So here is a short summary with focus on the mailing list: * Using tags within the subjects (like [Design]) might be an interim solution, but might break down soon, since posting discipline varies * People ask to not go too granular concerning mailing lists. Two of them should suit our needs and keep the so required collaboration. * One of the mailing list should target Marketing stuff (the current one), the other mailing one focus on overall Design aspects (the new one). * Further evaluation of communication channels should be done (IRC, voice calls, phone conferences, Google Wave, OpenConferencing, forums, ...) Another thought from my side: I know some people who are currently a bit hesitant to join. They do prefer a bit more streamlined communication that is "pre-filtered" by a topic based mailing list. I also would like to keep some consistency concerning the names of our groups. For example, the mailing list "webs...@libreoffice.org" is used by "LibreOffice Website Team". This leads to the following proposal I've made up by adding some more additional discussions and the experience we gathered in the past. PROPOSAL Set up a new mailing list called "des...@libreoffice.org" for the so called "LibreOffice Design Team". The current "LibreOffice Marketing Team" mailing list "marketing@libreoffice.org" might be used for discussions on: * marketing strategy (requirements, target groups, ...) * marketing material (flyers, presentations, ...) * promotional stuff (press releases) * event organization (conferences, trade fairs, ...) * ... The "LibreOffice Design Team" using the new mailing list "des...@libreoffice.org" will care about two main topics: * Visual Design and Artwork (artwork, branding, graphical aspects of UI design ... for the software and the websites) * User Experience Design (interaction design, usability, ergonomics, user research, ... for the software and the websites) Finally, I hope you support this proposal to make our work more efficient and to - of course - add some more fun! :-) I'll forward this proposal to the Steering Committee, who should decide on that. Again, thanks for all your input! Cheers, Christoph
Thanks Christoph for working this out. It all makes sense.
