<snipping a lot of good stuff>
As a new Marketing volunteer, I have had to fight through a lot of
technical jungles and read a lot of lists of procedure just to get
involved. We should simplify and clarify the instructions for getting
involved so that a person doesn't have to be as hardcore as I am to
not get turned off by these obstacles!
Hopefully we can improve all these. If we want to ;-)
<snip again>
As I suggested before:
- Wiki should be for idea development
- Mailing list should be fore discussion and decision making*
- Website should be for finished product.
+3 for all these points above :)
Just like I suggested three weeks ago when started the wiki thing.
Some argue that access to uploading things on the OOo website is hard.
Indeed at some point it may be difficult. This is because of the
security measures as the site is held on the same server as the source
code.
But there are more than a few contributors able to put up finished
things on the site and help out. And we can solve this part out. I see
no reason that this one last technical difficulty prevent us from
starting with what we have and especially the wiki.
So, as I advised before, taking it step by step and for now starting
doing marketing using the wiki and cease fire and fights would prove the
good intentions of everybody involved.
Things will change more in time. I am sure of it. Important is that if
we start fresh with some things, we keep what is good from what we have.
If you're communicating online, if someone offends you, suck it down
and be polite. As Mark Twain said, "Don't answer a fool according to
his folly, or you will be like him yourself."
*Lastly, this whole process confuses me. Obviously, I have shown that
I am a fan of Wikis. However, this group has historically done most of
its work on this list. I think it would be easier to keep track of
"vote tallies" and people's opinions if they were taken on the wiki.
But that's just me.
And I for one am willing to learn from you as you seem a power user of
wikis. Let's put it to work more.
;-)
Thanks for all the good stuff you are bringing in.
Best,
Cristian
