I have been considering starting (another) internal thread on how we can widen the GNOME sysadmin team some more. We made a request for sysadmin volunteers a couple of years ago, and got a good response, but unfortunately we turned most of them down and only took up a few of them on their offers, as we only needed a few more pairs of hands at the time. Now we have a small influx of new hardware and hosting offers, we are going to need to make sure they don't sit idle waiting for us to get round to them. I think we are going to need to consider taking on a few more worthy volunteers into the team to help prepare and execute any plans we will be drawing up and help maintain a certain level of service etc. Anyway, what with the subversion migration and other (non-GNOME) work, I'll be a bit busy for the next few weeks, but hopefully by the time that settles, Murray (and anyone else with an opinion) should have started setting some of the expectations and we can begin to discuss how to meet them ;) I look forward to seeing them. -- Ross _______________________________________________ Gnome-infrastructure mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-infrastructure
