I think we should not talk bad things about comp.lang.javascript. I have learned a lot of things by c.l.js and by the members there. There is really valuable information written by professional developers. Every of the member of c.l.js is welcome here if he follows our rules. > On http://www.jibbering.com/faq/notes/posting/ you can find the guidelines for > posting there, and even though a lot of it is related to usenet, it still > stands as pretty good starting point for shaping some general guidelines for > JsMentors. Indeed, this is good start point. This link and posted by Peter Michaux are good suggestions on which we should think about it before to write a guideline. We are working about CMS for JSMentors and FAQ section. Our plan is to start that in January 2011. When we are ready, the mentors would be in position to write their articles trough the JSMentors. Also they, me and Rey will maintain the FAQ of the list. Of course suggestions from the members of list are welcome and appreciated. > Without certain boundaries and rules in place for making JsMentors 'work' > efficiently, JsMentors (as so many other initiatives), risk loosing its > traction and everything will have been for naught. > > I'm not saying that these guidelines should be as rigorously as those > practiced on cljs, but they will need to state something about whats > expected from the participants with regards to how one formulates questions, > background information provided etc. Otherwise I fear many of us will leave > this list due to excessive 'noise'. I agree with you and I think this thread is step forward about this topic. I think with good suggestions by members of the list we are going to draw positive guidelines which will improve the reading and posting at the list. _______________________________________________ JSMentors mailing list [email protected] http://jsmentors.com/mailman/listinfo/jsmentors_jsmentors.com List Archive: http://jsmentors.com/pipermail/jsmentors_jsmentors.com/
