Hi guys I'm in town. Now I want to make clear the following: This idea is much more on having an effort to collect todo and manage to kill some of them regularly than to engage to for long task. As an example for the UI I would like - layout fixed so that glamour IDE can work - in place edit in list items (for example to be able to directly edit the protocol of a method in a sender list) - an option to get list showing only elements matching an input on the fly What you see is that we should have list of "simple" tasks that people can sign in for. The idea is that we should coordinate a bit to make progress. Stef On Jul 1, 2011, at 10:40 AM, Stéphane Ducasse wrote:
Dear Pharoers
I think that we are doing a great work: when I look at the work on the theme, better widgets, network.....Excellent! and thanks. Now we were discussing with Doru about how we as community could coordinate and structure ourselves better to create more energy.
Analysis of the current situation: Right now we have individuals doing great projects, sometimes we have a group of people but this is often not visible. Now often happens a bit in ad-hoc way. Because someone ask something, then somebody replies and we integrate the replies.
What I would like to see emerging are First Class Tasks with a name a topic a coordinator a group of interested participants, a set of identified clients (because clients are the ones that often make us deliver more), a little agenda, a web presence on the web page
If we look at what we have right now that are potential Tasks and really important clients
- The Z connection: Network/Socket Coordinator (proposed): Sven Socket: Noury Luc Jannik Olivier Clients: Seasiders, Clouders,
- Morphic 2: UI: Alain Gary Igor Coordinator (proposed): ? Presenty framework VoidNullPointer UIBuilder Athens Clients: Moose, Pharo IDE
- Pharo IDE: Coordinator (proposed): Doru work around TWM Laurent Nautilus: Benjamin Laurent Glamourous: Doru Damien
- OPAL: Compiler tool chain Coordinator (proposed): Marcus? Jb, Jorge, Marcus, Helvetia lukas Niko Schwarz?
- Package: Stef, Cyrille Coordinator (proposed): Stephane Client: Nautilus, Doru Moose,
- Metacello Dale Mariano Coordinator (proposed): Dale? Client: Stef with the idea of distribution, Torsten don't you want to help here?
- Coral: Coordinator (proposed): Damien? Damien, Luc, Adrien, Stef, Client: Damien, Olivier?
So what would be good is to have the identification on the web site of these groups. More discussions and concentration with a set of little tasks to be performed We could tag the mails with [Task-UI], [Task-OPAL], have a little visible agenda.
What do you think? I think that it is important.
