- GOAL #2: It is extraordinarily easy to join the Fedora community and quickly find a project to work on.Random ideas: making it easier to help fix a bug that happens when you hit it, right from the desktop, maybe some ABRT integration. Making it far easier to file bugs in the first place, submit screenshots, be productive at filing the bug without a lot of manual labor involved on either side. Having a Fedora jobs board where you can apply to take on a task. Integration with OpenHatch. The Fedora RPG, with desktop integration. Improved forums for Fedora users to communicate with each other, maybe integrated into the desktop somehow.
In an attempt to tie together some of what Mo, Jesse, and Christoph all said, I go back here.
The hypothesis/claim has been put forward that the Fedora Project would benefit from having a higher percentage of developers/testers/people who focus on creating new code that also works.
That doesn't mean the Fedora Project wants to stop gaining any other types of people, just that we'd like to grow that particular subset at a greater pace.
Goal #2 seems like the one that provides the framework for doing just that, and if it's well managed, the metrics and results you get for free.
I think all of the goals suggested are interesting ones. This one in particular grabbed my attention.
