I don't think there's a need for restricted access, and it would be
opposite to the way we try to do everything in the open.
What you need is
1) a way to be contacted directly by those who need (apprentices)
2) a way to discuss within members of the team, but maybe other people too
if some want to join the discussion
For 1), I think your @mageia.org address once you will get one is
sufficient. It's only one means of communication among others (MLs,
forums, wiki), so I don't think a group is necessarily needed for that.
You can still forward requests you can't handle yourself.
That being said, I have nothing against the use of a group for that, but only
as a contact e-mail, not for discussion, or only for sensitive discussion
about specific persons.
That was exactly the purpose -- one contact point !
(Which we can put in various documentation, etc.)
That way if I'm not available -- on holidays, sick or whatever, I could
alert the others to ensure a fast response. And they could always help out
if they wanted.
And if someone takes my place, it would be a transparent changeover.
A public mailing list could be used as contact point. And would allow
other people to join the team.
I've been reflecting on that, and I agree.
- I was mostly worried about interest in packaging being lost in the noise of
heavy traffic lists like mageia-dev.
- Any confidential/private communication could be handled by direct mail, as
now.
- A mailing list would be simpler to administer.
If it were used for the actual mentoring process as well, that wouldn't be a
problem - it's related, and requests to be mentored wouldn't be easily lost.
We had the name packager-mentoring@... in mind.
So could we have [email protected] ?
Thanks :)
