Sure, I'd be happy to help out with posting docs, testing things out, reporting back, etc. Question: are you planning on setting up pre-defined tags, buckets, categories, etc. for the system? Or have these even been determined - or waiting to be determined based on how the workflow feels once it's set up? I'm happy to provide feedback there - if needed - I'm kind of a document organization neat-freak (if only I could figure out how to apply this OCD trait to my closet). How will access be defined? Will there be more of a web-based "apply for access / permissions" thing, or will it be tied to my fedoraproject id? And if it is the latter, is there a specific group I should apply to to get the ball rolling? -r On 8/14/09, Mel Chua <mel@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Well, that was quick.
