For example our discussion about Dynamo DB. Or security concerns, or migration issues, I don't really want in a Wiki. The goal isn't to compete with this forum, or with StackOverflow, but to take the non-Technical portions of the discussion, and the comparative questions, in to a forum where we have a little more control over the discussion, and where we won't scare off the newbies. It is difficult to build a community with the people who pop in and out of this group, and we don't bridge over to the Amazon and Azure discussions. (I see pretty much none of you over there). Also the hope would be that by having some Google and some Amazon and some Microsoft all going to the same place from time to time that we would all get a better sense of their philosophy. Rather than solving "What's broken with my code" the hope would be that people would talk about "Which PaaS is the best for this use case?" or "Which scenarios is Dynamo better than GQL?" Also with moderation we wouldn't end up with our emails in the spam lists as often. And people who are annoying could get a refund and be voted off the island. -Brandon From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rohan Chandiramani Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2012 5:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [google-appengine] Re: Considering a Cloud MasterMind Group Wouldn't an open wiki be a great solution. This way the knowledge is spread to all to see like you have been doing, and it's in a managed place. You could also put your face on top of every article to cover the costs and fame. Even though... yours is not a bad idea either, but i wonder how much good it'l do if you create a closed community, users will be segregated instead and the users here might get a worse experience because all the smart guys moved on, in turn discouraging new users to cloud solutions. In any case i'd still be interested in both options. my 2 cents. PS. IMO google shouldn't complain about promoting... hosting a cloud service without a best practice guide and letting users figure out what's best is not the way to do business. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
