[IAEP] new technical list in spanish

2009-08-29 Thread Tomeu Vizoso
Hi,

several development groups are being formed right now in Latin America
and in order to make easier for them to work together a new list has
been created:

http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-desarrollo

Please join if you would like to participate in discussions about
Sugar development in Spanish.

Regards,

Tomeu

Won't this have the side effect of a segmented development community? On
which list would consensus be authoritative?

It has all the downsides of creating a new mailing list. But given the
low (almost null) participation in the existing mailing lists of the
people who this new list is targeted, I think the benefits will
outgrow the downsides.

 On
 which list would consensus be authoritative?

If someone is opposed to someone else doing something, then that
feedback needs to reach that someone else. I see how this can get
messy but unless we bar participation in the community of people who
don't speak english, we'll need to find a way to cope with this.

Tomeu

The education nature of the project is engaging many people who are
not traditional open source contributors.  This is an excellent out
reach opportunity.

I'll do my best to continue writing in mangled English:( to help keep
the bar low for non-native English speaker who might feel their
ability to communicate in English is not up to par:)

The list was created to ensure and give the possibility to people that
don't know English or are not to confident in it to participate in
Sugar development,

We'll hope that students and developers from all Spanish-speaking
countries take the lead and begin to support the overall sugar
development.
