RE: [hackers] Goals
Hey guys, let me know if you want some sites to test on -- there are dozens of sites out there that would be interested in knowing about this, and I'd like to start giving some folks the headsup that you're working on it, if nothing else (also I'm so damn thrilled about the whole project its hard to keep in)-- let me know what you think, when I can leak it more publicly, Z Zephyr Teachout Internet Organizing Outreach Dean for America [EMAIL PROTECTED] Meetup at http://www.deanforamerica.com/meetup Get local at http://action.deanforamerica.com Contribute at http://www.deanforamerica.com/contribute -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ka-Ping Yee Sent: Friday, July 25, 2003 2:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hackers] Goals On Thu, 24 Jul 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Most of you don't know me very well yet but I am all about action and immediacy wherever possible. Goals are important to keep us on track, and since last week's goals were not met, I think some level of dialogue is needed. I propose the following timeline goals: A week from now all modules will be written. I understand the need for urgency, but i don't see how you can be comfortable setting deadlines for everyone at this point. That might be an appropriate thing to try if you understood the degree of complexity of each module and the status of progress on each module -- but some of the modules haven't been specified, and some haven't even been claimed by anyone yet, so there's no way anyone could possibly know that. I do think the enthusiasm is good. Let's just try to avoid setting wildly unrealistic goals. (Why do i think this is unrealistic? With respect to the media module, unless you are already way ahead of me on the code -- if so, great, but we should communicate -- there's no way it will be done next week. I'll continue the discussion of complexity and unresolved issues regarding the media module on the developers list.) I agree with you that setting goals is good -- when we set them, they have to be both realistic and specific. -- ?!ng

Re: [hackers] Endorse and weekend
if we use Illinois for Dean's Dean-o-gram initative (which isn't finished yet), it is still going to need to be incorporated into Drupal. Someone (Lynn seemed to volunteer) should start work or be thinking about this IMHO I am volunteering for it but I'm not sure what needs to be in the module. Do I just run with it? Seeing the Illinois one (even if it's not for drupal) would be a help if anyone has access to it. Lynn: The answer is *run with it*! This here group is all about individual initiative. Also, I'm contacting indiana today to try and get some brains from their operation on our list. I'll include a question about the invite thingy as well as drupal... -j
Re: [hackers] A current endorse dean page...
From what I know about endorse it is a form you fill out and spam all your friends with some premade Dean messages. That link looks like something to gather names (which we can also do, where do we put them?). The deanvolunteers page is closer to the talent database. How is that part going? We won't be duplicating or conflicting with the DeanVolunteers effort if we make that will we? -Neil Original message Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2003 13:03:42 -0400 From: Shannon Little [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hackers] A current endorse dean page...

RE: [hackers] A current endorse dean page...
The talent db is misnamed, really -- it has a talent db function, but the real trick is in the display, ALA friendster, and the social community building. Its not about the info coming in (really easy) -- more about the way of showing it that induces connections (find a neighbor for dean).
