Currently I am looking for suggestions, which people should be interviewed first.
You should have gotten the big list from Stephan Binner that Pascal referred to, but as Benjamin Weber pointed out on IRC the other day, they might become outdated before being published if we do too many at once.
I think Pascal made a good point about alternating between community people and Novell people. I'd like to suggest that we take this "diversity management" even further, so as to make sure that we cover a diverse section of the following characteristics:
* Gender - male, female, maybe more.. * Age - young, old, middleaged, teenagers even perhaps * Types of contributions - hackers, packagers, artists, mirror admins, server admins, translators, documentors, marketers, etc. * Geography - I believe we have active contributors in just about all countries and continents. Especially the "emerging markets" such as Asia where we have Cyberorg among others is interesting.
By covering a broad range of people these interviews could not only serve to make us know each other better, but also as inspiration to potential contributors who might think: "I'm too old", "I'm too young", "I'm too busy", "I'm not a hacker, how would I ever be able to help"
Diversity might also make them more interesting to read ;-)
I support Coolo as top contender to be #1, if he's not too busy these days ;-) His "People behind KDE"-interview is getting really outdated... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
