I have consolidated the Planning Area into 3 parts:
+ Chandler Project (cross-product, cross-project planning)
+ Chandler Desktop
+ Chander Hub, which is sub-divided into Chandler Server, Hosted Service

To be consistent we should refer to the Chandler Server version number as 0.7. Either that or we should be talking about Chandler Desktop Preview version. Preview is just a label. I think we ought to use the version numbers, because for the next Preview, we might not all be at 0.7.


I don't have a strong opinion about this. Sheila? Priss? Katie?

+ As for Standalone Chandler Server: We don't currently have separate planning material/specs, but we've talked about doing that going forward. We have a separate Standalone Chandler Server section in the Product Area. We also have an Extending Chandler Desktop section in the Product Area, don't know if that's applicable to Planning as well: http://wiki.osafoundation.org/ Product/WebHome (Ted, Sheila, Priss, Cosmo folks? any thoughts?)

I don't understand why we have these two items (Standalone Chandler Server and Extending Chandler Desktop). There's no difference between the Chandler Server that we use for the Hub and the one that people download. Also Extending Chandler Desktop isn't really a product is it? It's just part of the Desktop.


From a Product Planning perspective, the Standalone Chandler Server product will probably eventually look very different from the Chandler Hub product. For example, what is currently the Account Browser may get a UI overhaul aimed at people running home servers or servers for small companies, etc. But Chandler Hub users may never see/use the Account Browser.

Even today, we have some competing use cases around the various URLs users can access/hand out from the end-user UI. Anyhow, we don't need to have that section in the Planning area just yet, since there isn't anything to put there...but the Planning and Product Areas are technically organized by Product...and we've talked about how eventually Chandler Server will be it's own product. But I may be jumping the gun on this one.


+ I've also added quicklinks in the right-hand sidebar to PPD Contributor Notes and Active Specs / Projects (e.g. Branding)

+ I've taken a few choice links from the Journal WebHome: Events, Mailing list stuff and IRC

The events page is totally out of date

Yup, who can I pass the buck to? Pieter?

The names of some mailing lists are unclear. We don't have list named 'dev'. It's called 'chandler-dev'. Same for 'cosmo', it's 'cosmo-dev' I think we should drop the IRC office hours pages. We don't really have them any more, it's a vestigial reference.


Yup, again, who can I pass the buck to? Pieter?

+ And then I've split Contributor notes into Current and Alumnus

I think that we should canonicalize the way that there are displayed. Everybody's first and last name ought to appear - how will someone new know who "Randy" is?


Sure, I thought about that too, but don't think it's a big deal either way. We can tackle this next Tuesday, we're planning on using the Design Session time for another wiki gardening sprint.

+ The meetings notes that used to live in Journal will live under Teams in the new taxonomy

+ I've also added quicklinks to the various TEAM pages in the right-hand sidebar.

Is there anything else that should go in the Notes Area?

To recap the new Notes Area is meant to be a Sandbox area for contributors...basically all the 'unofficial' stuff. The meeting notes are actually kind of official...and also belong under Teams.

The top of the page says home of all things un-official. Does that mean this is also a place for anyone to put up journal pages or is it restricted to staff/interns/SoC folks?


There are community member pages in there as well. Not sure if we want to draw a line between staff and community. We haven't until now.


*ATTENTION* Each of the Teams pages should link in the right-hand sidebar to the Contributor Notes page of all team members. Please side right-hand sidebar of the PPD Team page: http:// wiki.osafoundation.org/Projects/DesignGroup

So is it time for me to start working on the Cosmo Team page? I haven't done anything with it.


Yaaa. Please.

Mimi
