Haha - but it's fun! Thanks Cd.K. and Lost Admin. Great points! Thank you everyone for your responses and contributions. I'm going to close this thread and move on to Stage 2 - a short survey in a new thread. Then, finally, a 'Conference' in a week's time. Hope you'll be able to attend. --

I am also involved in the Ilya discourse thread. The fact that Blender also uses this software is for me another big fat plus point for discourse. But as you wrote, you also have to organize yourself in discourse and that is the obvious lack: TiddlyWiki is not organized. I've only recently

As promised to @Cd.K. I had a look at one of the Blender forums; https://devtalk.blender.org/t/i-love-blender-so-ive-spent-a-bit-of-time-designing-a-better-ui-workflow-what-do-you-think/9693 Blender seems to be using the open source Discourse forum software; https://meta.discourse.org/ Which

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Thanks Tony, Can you list a few pros and cons of the Mail archive over the standard GG interface from a collaboration point of view, for those of us who've never used it? As regards clarification, when I started I'll admit I was thinking more of ways of leveraging Google Groups to facilitate

All, We should not underestimate what value we can extract from the Mail archive , perhaps a little focused consideration about this would help. Watt, It would help if you restated clearly exactly what 'information gathering' you

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Thanks for the thoughts TT, there'll be a chance to discuss everything later I hope once the 'information gathering' stages conclude. Thanks for the input. If anyone else wants to chip in please do - Any other techniques or workarounds you think might be useful when collaborating on a team

Re: [tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Thanks for the response Riz, I'll add your points to the forthcoming Agenda thread where I hope the discussion will take place. Hope that doesn't count as necrobumping, this approach is a bit experimental. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

1. As Tony pointed out: No upvoting mechanism. Lot of good posts doesn't get attention because the only way for people to show approval is by comments. I am sure there are a lot of lurkers in this forum, given the number of its members and the fact that all we usually see is some regulars &

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Thanks Tony, you've given me an excuse to go over the original post again. Here's 'the plan'; Stage 1 - (this thread) - Submissions close Wednesday 2nd October. Collect ideas, thoughts, problems, experiences, anything to do with collaboration on google groups. No discussion at stage 1. Stage

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Watt, I appreciate what you are doing and wish to comply. An Important point I am trying to make is use more than one thread and have all related threads include a tittle prefix [twconfOct2019] Security Stream A Single stream will in my view be a disaster. This is only about collaboration

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Thanks for the response Tony, Have a look at the original post and you'll see the 4 stage, timetabled 'plan', such as it is, culminating in a virtual 'Conference on Collaboration in Google Groups'. I'm hoping that description will contain enough keywords to make it findable in the future.

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Watt Thanks for this initiative which I support whole heartedly. Before any alternative is discussed we should try and leverage our existing tools. I think the best way to proceed is to use the metaphore of a conference. Many here will I imagin be familiar. I suggest time frames and calendar

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Thanks for the response Cd.K, I'll definitely have a look at Blender and add points here if I can. Thanks for the input. I'm still collecting any thoughts on collaboration successes, failures and all points in between, as experienced by users here on google groups. Everything counts so please

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Hi Watt, I honestly don't think that GG is suitable for the efficient organization of collaboration. Take a look at the website of this open source, tightly organized and successfull community: *Blender**.* Register there (get involved ) and find out

[tw5] Re: Conference announcement: Collaboration on Google Groups

Rather than just 'bump' this I thought it would be more productive to look through previous threads for collaboration questions and ideas. I'm still trying to avoid discussion of the ideas just yet, hoping to collect more responses and ideas first, so please do chip in any ideas, problems,

Hi Watt, thanks for the initiative, I think it's worth a try! So let me start. Problem: Limitations on mobile. Posting to GG from the phone is not as powerful and fun as from the laptop. This is true for writing, formatting as well as for copy-pasting solutions/suggestions. (This ist a GG
