I agree to that, and I did not mean an automated mail, but just a template
we can copy and modify to secure  we all give the relevant information and
more.


If we find out that we tend to give similar answers, we should turn them 
into web pages. We have done so in a couple of occasions in the past, 
and this works because we don't forget information and everyone can 
locate it. So: nothing against having template answers, but gradually 
we should make them as short as possible and use web pages for the 
common content.

mail templates.

2013-08-10 Thread janI
hi

maybe I am the only one, but I feel I start from scratch everytime I
welcome a potential translator or other tasks.

Would it be possible to make a couple of mail templates, we all could use,
and adapt to the single situation, so all mails have the same set of
information.

just an idea.

Some of these mails are encourage by the content from intro modules. The
goal is to start engaging the new contributors with the rest of the
community. I think automated mail will discourage this first encounter.

Also we actually want to know what are their skillsets and suggest areas
where they can be most helpful.
