Can anyone bring batteries from GNOME Asia to US?
I'm getting a 100%-free-software laptop from China, but with Chinese security paranoia they can't ship the batteries. Is there anyone who will be at GNOME Asia this weekend, and then go to the US, who would like to carry two or three batteries for the machine? You could ship them to the FSF (at our expense) on arrival in the US. Please write to me if you would like to do this. This list reaches only a fraction of GNOME developers, so if you know anyone else from the US who is going to GNOME Asia, please forward the message to him. ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

This took me ten minutes to set up. A mailing list would have taken at least a few days, 3) Subscribing and unsubscribing to the wiki is much easier and more intuitive, Cheers, behdad > There are > many things that wikis aren't particularly good for, and this strikes me > as being one of them. > > Cheeri, > Calum. > ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

Something we can pull with an RSS feed is probably more appropriate. At list the wiki page does not require to subscribe to it to read it.

Many GNOME hackers look for jobs and they crawl blogs, mailing lists, or ask on IRC. Now there is a central place that community members can post GNOME- related job openings, and job seekers can subscribe to. Nothing fancy, a good old wiki page: http://live.gnome.org/Jobs Any reason you didn't just set up a gnome-jobs mailing list? There are many things that wikis aren't particularly good for, and this strikes me as being one of them.

Hopefully :) I would more interested by jobs which would qualify for both than by jobs whih are about GNOME technologies but not for Free Software, but some people probably don't mind. However, I think that some links on this wiki page to other places were we can find some GTK/GNOME jobs could be nice, in addition to the actual jobs. ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
