[opensuse-wiki] Team Pages
Team, gnokii thought about informations that should be provided on team pages and I'd like to forward this to you in order to get more feedback before I'll reach out to the Teams asking for implementation/adoption. I CC: interested parties to make sure they're aware. So, what we'd like to achieve? Team pages are an integral part of reaching out to potential contributors and GOOD team pages encourage contributors to get involved in the Project/specific Team. Here is what gnokii prepared so far --- What information should be on team pages 1. what does the team do, tasks etc. * include the sources in the wiki 2. how is it organized -> the way to work in this team!!! 3. members of the team * important some teams sort the members after novell and community thats not good! * some teams like the boosters give all contact informations for each member there, thats not necessary. Better link to the userpage and hold each information there. 4. contact data for the team like IRC and mailing lists mor isnt necessary on the wiki pages. I would like to have point 4 on the side like the "team template" now is. And the team template on the end of the side is better. Over the contact data Iwould put a graphic that represent the team, or this I need the dimensions for it. Look after art team page, there is the graphic same size like the "team template" has. So it looks good. On one page I saw a nationality flag behind the member, thats a good idea, for connecting I would me pick a member in my language its easier --- So far for specific Team Pages .. It's all about providing the right, and ONLY the sufficient info in an accessible and common way across ALL team pages we have and integrate them under one umbrella (see below). The other thing is our "Inter-team page", i.e. listing the teams. Currently we have http://en.opensuse.org/Teams and http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Teams is what we'd like to have instead. Thanks henne! So, after all, this is a two step process: 1. Implementing/adjusting team pages 2. Listing teams at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Teams Any suggestions? Additional ideas?

And we should clean up the list - the current list of teams contains Novell internal teams (like "architecture team") that are not openSUSE teams at all. IMO those teams should not get added.

Well if its feasible then it would be better to have an Team leader/head/incharge who would obviously guide,mentor,give suggestions and perform other necessary tasks .Also at the same time would update others on what is to achieved and what all has to be done/has been done.And if required a report to the BOARD so that they get the entire idea. As i am not in touch with the things going on around and also dont have the complete picture in mind so ignore it if not satisfactory .Just a suggestion.
Best, R

While I see where you're coming from, this isn't a matter with the Team Pages or the Interteam Page we're going to establish from my perspective but an idea for team-internal organization and reporting structure. Thanks though, R

This is an interesting idea and I suggest to discuss this separately on the opensuse-project list. IMO it would make a lot of sense to have a monthly (?) report from each team on what they're doing and plan to do - that would make it easier for others to jump in and help as well.

Actually it will not make easier to help, but, for majority of potential contributors, that would make possible to jump in and help. So many times I got question from people willing to help "What to do", and I got no answer. General see "How to participate" page is actually bad answer. That is a list of possibilities, not particular projects with tasks that have clear requirements, size of the job, and goal. That IMHO is discouraging for 90% of interested people. -- Regards Rajko, openSUSE Wiki Team: http://en.opensuse.org/Wiki_Team People of openSUSE: http://en.opensuse.org/People_of_openSUSE/About -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
