I think Sandstorm's clunky interface for sharing etc. and even seems
laggy as a user… I'm happy to skip it. It has promise, but feels not
great right now.
I made some notes about our tools:
IRC: *check* (we talked about embedding a client in the site sometime
though)
Jitsi meet: *check* use their instance
Etherpad: we don't have a good third-party host that we know we can rely
on, the updated one with in-line commenting is nice. Maybe we should run
it ourselves…
Wekan: probably run ourselves…
Redmine or OpenProject: user-stories, processing, sorting, project
management stuff, I guess should run ourselves
Wiki: need to separate wiki stuff out from our code, probably separate
the main articles for public-consumption stuff from the stuff that we
use for our organizing. I'd like to integrate Gitit eventually. I could
see using a wiki with Redmine/OpenProject or something for immediate
notes and internal organizing.
GitLab: *check* via git.gnu.io
Email lists: *check* but probably should move the announce stuff to
CiviCRM probably
CiviCRM: *check* but need better organizing, better access for people,
use the email announce functions, use hooks/API or something to
integrate potentially…
http://42.meup.org for image paste sharing…
We're still working on:
image repos, collaborative graphics work…
spec'ing of the site… will Redmine cover that?
Sorry for the dump of stuff, I guess ideally even Redmine might offer
better ways to process all this info vs just this mailing list?
