We need a general discussion list where students and mentors can come and ask questions, discuss proposals, etc. I didn't want that to be this list, so we can continue to have a place for SIG business and not have it be noisy. This is based on my GSoC experience of how many students drop in to ask questions, etc., on the general discussion list. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/summer-coding-discuss * Open subscription (confirm only) * Open archives * List membership visible to list members * Topics -- anything related to the current year's Summer Coding program https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/summer-coding-mentors * Closed subscription (confirm + approval) * Closed archives (subscribers only) * List membership visible only to admins (debatable idea!) * Topics -- anything that should be private: proposals, performance, financials, student/mentor problems, etc. Does that make sense? Join away, please. If you were a mentor previously or seriously plan on mentoring for this year, you are invited to the mentor list. I'll be sending a copy of this to the redhat-summer-mentors list as the last location where the most mentors were together. In that message I explain why a Fedora-specific list for discussion and mentors. Essentially, it is because student and mentor interaction for JBoss.org and Fedora Project are going to be very different during the actual running of the program, and we will create confusion for everyone if we have all the work happening on one list. Just as we ask students to interact directly with upstreams, any students working on JBoss.org needs to have their non-administrivia discussions happening there. - Karsten -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Gardener team: Red Hat Community Architecture uri: http://TheOpenSourceWay.org/wiki gpg: AD0E0C41 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
