And how do you keep this from being an inner circle of mutual back patting? No really, I don't mean that it will be like this... this is the same question I face in another project I am involved in as we try to find ways to recognize contributors.
It's a really difficult question. I know a lot of people are contributing, but that's because in some way they've reached out for help in some way or made some noise. I also know that many people are contributing quietly, in very valuable ways, but it's hard to identify those folks.
For me, the "People of openSUSE" series was very close to this kind of recognition.
I've been leading "People of openSUSE" almost since the beginning and from my experience I must have to say that it is a good way to recognize valuable community users, indeed. The thing is that I was forced to stop those series due to personal reasons (time) and because, to be honest, my interests in the openSUSE community have changed - I now want to focus my attention mostly on "the truly" development and not on the marketing/promoting side. So, if anyone want to pick it up and start running it again please be free to email me and I will teach you how to handle those interviews quite easily. -- Regards, Carlos Goncalves -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
