[openbeos] Progress reports

Hi everyone,
it's really sad that nobody is writing progress reports (e.g., commit
log summaries). Does anybody want to give it a try, maybe this time as
a group effort?

What do you think about this: Summarize individual commits using
Google Reader's "Share with note" feature. IOW, you just read the
commit logs and if you find something great then you can tell the
whole community with a single click and maybe a short comment. We'd
only need a short explanation. Most of the time the commit message
already says a lot.

Reader automatically provides a publicly accessible feed for all
shared items. It looks like this (WARNING: this is just an *example*
and it will be removed):
http://www.google.com/reader/shared/17874889821028276775

IOW, it could simply be a cleaned up and "pimped up" version of the
commits feed, intended for non-developers and enthusiasts who want to
follow Haiku's progress more closely.

Now, does anyone want to help with these per-commit "micro-summaries"?
Is there anyone who already uses Google Reader and reads the commit
logs?

Bye,
Waldemar Kornewald
