What do we want out of a web page?
I would like a list of who is working on what. What groups exists, who is on
them.
The only way that I could see to do that within source forge was to make
seperate
source forge projects for each kit. That kind of seems like a lot more work
that I
want to go through. Plus all of the integration pains we would have to go
through.
People need info about the project. What it is, what we are doing, etc. Status
is nice,
too. I was kind of thinking maybe something like what Wine does - a web news
letter.
Maybe like Be did originally? Once a week, we make a newsletter with
interesting bits
from 1 or 2 of the developers? Maybe I could top it off with an interesting
piece? I don't know.
Just a thought. :-)
