Re: Discourse
Let's not go in that way. As a ~new person~ on KDE, 3 years only, we need to move to a modern web. At least in my point of view, I really think that using old stuff doesn't attract new people. In that I have a few ideas for some KDE websites go modern, but that is a project for the future. Discourse is a way to do that. I don't have much idea on how is the cost to maintain such an application, but in the field to setup it, I don't think that is hard since we just need docker and Postgres. So Ben and other sysadmins, Ben, you had some concerns that others answered on this thread. What do you think? Also, I found this ansible to deploy discourse with and without docker, that can be a starting point: https://github.com/jamielinux/ansible-discourse Let's think about how this can help all the KDE users, and push our community forward. If we have old stuff that is hard to maintain, and it is outdated, we should move forward. ** My opinions can be *simple*, because I think that the *situation* is simple, also because I may not have a *macro* view of everything** Cheers, On Mon, Nov 26, 2018 at 7:04 PM Ingo Klöcker wrote: > On Montag, 26.

Re: Discourse
I do think that we should consider to move to discourse. One thing that I've learned with the agile method is to discover the 'pain' of my user and try to cure it. What i see from this thread is the 'pain' of maintaining this kind of infrastructure, that I think that using tools of automations like Ansible or Kubernetes for the orquestration and management of containers would aliviate that kind of pain. But I could be wrong, since I don't know any idea of the work that the kde sysadmins have. I love automation and how that makes my life easier at work. I agree over Paul Adams comments, and I think that if we want to go forward on this, we need to study it, find the poins of 'pain' and come up with solutions that can be good for everyone. For me, all the movements that want to bring KDE to a modern web are valid... to be studied and maybe implemented.

Re: The VDG
Just a thought: "If you want to point a finger, do it at me. I am at fault for not guiding sooner." I don't think that we need to point fingers here. Or that we need a leader. What we need is a guideline that everyone can *understand* and *follow*. We need to be a *team*. We need to put our pride by the side and discuss every view that one has on the subject. Isn't just 'we don’t dimension that a graphic design that took us 2 hours to make will take 6 months to deliver'. It's to understand the macro view of a project, it's to understand how everything is affected by that change. We need to measure that, and that is where I do +1 on your comment about a Project Management. The Agile Method has a lot of good practices that we can study and adapt for our use case. Also, if we start to follows 'one leader', that can cause us future problems, as if the burden gets too heavy and so on, or as starting pointing fingers on stuff that we lost track just to have a 'fall guy'. We need to *share* *our* *knowledge* and build the common base of that. We can't rely upon one person for that. Otherwise, all the history or the background will get to dust when 'the leader' gets out of the community. We can have guidance, but I think that you don't need to take all of that upon you Andy.
