I don't have a strong opinion on your proposals, though I prefer to at least see action items in emails. One thing I wish we would do across the Ubuntu development community is to regularize on a way of annotating action items in emails, as some mail clients (e.g. mutt) will let you write regexs to match and highlight such things. Something like ACTION: IRCNick frob the fribnizz with filthy frosting LP: #314159 or whatever, we can bikeshed on the specific format for easiest regex writing. That way, on those rare occasions that I get ubuntu-server action items, they're instantly visible to me when reading email minutes. Similarly, people may also wish to write scripts to parse such things so that they can be dumped into a todo tracking tool like gtg or whatever. (For the record, in a .muttrc you'd add something like: color body white blue "^ *ACTION: *IRCNick .*$" to have action items show up in email bodies with white text on a blue background, rather distinctive in white on black emails. Season to taste, of course.) -- Steve Beattie <[email protected]> http://NxNW.org/~steve/
