Hi,
in the last couple of weeks I realized that we don't have a proper
communication channels for various purposes. So I want to suggest
the following and get feedback, or if it's obvious do just vote.
1) A list for coordinating blog posts, other communication,
attending of event, etc. - not sure about the name, so am looking
for suggestions. I am not sure whether we should have public
archives: comparable lists of other projects don't.
Concretely, I think the type of stuff that would be
discussed would be non-developer related
a) Who wants to post which blog post when - there have been a lot
of 1-2-1 discussions on this lately, in particular because the
blog is getting a more diverse group of owners.
b) Review each others posts, somebody needs help submitting a talk to an event,
review each others submissions to events, ...
c) Who is going to which event, is staying where when going to
XYZ, ...
Debian has a debian-publicity@lists.debian.org
list (but that does not quite fit). Maybe this is a general
marketing list?
2) A semi-private invite mailing list for ALL project leads,
committers and maintainers of ALL projects hosted on xen.org
I wouldn't expect this list to be used often, as most communication
happens (and needs to happen) in public. But sometimes it is
necessary to have an official provite channel. Recent examples I had
were related to the Hackathon: I didn't know whether person X should
be invited (given limited space) and had no way to ask. Or there
were other items that are sometimes better first discussed amongst
the leadership of all the different projects together and we have no
way today of discussing these.
We may need a couple more, but let's just start with these two for
now.
Ideas?
Best Regards
Lars
