the point is how many people are active right now outside of
Novell, and why ?
Whoops missed this question - Well, I'm active. As for why, it's
because
my question was more "why are there so little people..."
(contributors on this list, authors of wiki pages...)
My experience is:
some people have spare time. Having gotten help from suse or
liking suse they come and lurk www.opensuse.org
if they don't find something to do, may be simple, they will
go elsewhere.
So an important subject should be: what task could be given
to newcommers.
and when somebody asks "what can I do", there should be one
people in charge of responding.
I know this is difficult, but this only can group people
around opensuse.
some answers could be: test some part of the distribution
(with so many packages, there should be many workplaces :-),
take in charge That wiki page...
give responsability, give infos - create a special "member
team list", anything that make sense as a moral reward.
on a page "task to do", there should be a list and a list of
names associated, and a note "help still needed" or "staff
complete".
