We have had a few conversations about some upcoming changes to the distribution on the artwork department. Through your input, it is understood the scope that we want to achieve, which leads us to go on with the proposed changes to the distribution for artwork. They will be treated as a test and not the final product, since it is possible that many suggestions and changes will happen after that through your comments and requests. Also, the wallpaper contest is about to be launched. Kenneth Wimer will take part of that and will soon be making a more formal announcement and rules of the contest. Kenneth will likely need the help of our team since he is short on time. Let's be ready for his requests. Additionally, I have been asking some members of our team about the possibility of them taking a specific responsibility on the team to streamline our work. I have received mixed comments. Understandably, we all are short on time and artwork could take a lot of time to be done. I also got an interesting feedback question: 1. Should we use a bug tracker system to coordinate specific artwork requests? 2. If so, what should/could we use? Right now we only have the ML or IRC to make informal requests. One last point. We have discussed with a few members on the need to make a formal artwork release schedule. It is pretty obvious that artwork is something to be done earlier than the release schedule but there is no specific time frame for us. How about we do a 6 month artwork release cycle? The distribution takes 8 months and at month 6 they should have a release candidate ready. Is this too long, too short. Please comment.
