There is a whole bunch of disc space (right now) and if we wait and plan and work through what will be done with it, it will never get done. i asked for ideas and such. at least i tried. for instance, maybe someone would like wilber to mirror gentoo. i don't really know. also, i know so little of the possibilities. three things that i am very very interested in is moving the site, the wiki and i would really like to have a gimp organization blog working. i am trying to write a plug-in for gimp that will produce the pages for it. when a good plan gets sent about, you miss better ways maybe. this is the time to mention anything you ever wished for from wilber, i guess. then some discussion about your wishes can happen. there are a few sites that need a contributor.gimp.org, imo. there are probably some i have missed. no one really gave me very much to go on, i am passing along everything i got for this. > > Sorry about the weekend notice also, probably i followed the WrongMethod > > like they did to notify poor Arthur Dent of his homes demise in the > > first of the hitchiker books. > > Yes, sending an unexpected announcement during the week-end is probably > not the best way to communicate with those who are usually not on the > 'net at that time. > well, as typical, we just got things started. it was very difficult to keep me on task. i did some nominal cleaning to mmmaybe. the gimp-help from gimp-1.2 needs to be put into http://mmmaybe.gimp.org/docs/gimp-docs/ and the developer doc need to be put here: http://mmmaybe.gimp.org/docs/dev-docs/. truthfully, by the time i got them to build, i forgot what i was doing. i might have offended some along the way also. one person cannot remember everything. but this is gimp stuff, there is plenty of time, but the sooner the better. > > Please send your ideas or needs to this list or any other. > > But what is planned exactly?
