More Blogging and Fewer Mailing Lists
January 24th, 2008 at 5:24 pm (3 months, 3 weeks ago) by Mimi Yin under Chandler Desktop Development, Chandler Server Development, Community, OSAFTo help focus as a team, we have consolidated our various mailing lists in the following ways:
Chandler-dev is now the working list for all things pertaining to the Chandler Project. This includes planning, design and bug prioritization for both Chandler Desktop and Chandler Hub as well as general interest topics like the project wiki, evangelism, community, and governance.
Cosmo-dev remains a separate list for those interested in just the server. Planning and project management discussions that used to happen on Cosmo-dev will move to Chandler-dev.
General, Design and Service-dev are now inactive. These conversations will move to Chandler-dev. If you are on one of these lists and want to continue following the day to day work of the project, subscribe to Chandler-dev.
Chandler-users will remain the best place for users to ask questions and report issues. Email us at chandler-users at osafoundation dot org.
Announce will continue to broadcast major releases and other newsworthy information.
All other public lists will stay the same.
We are also maintaining a Chandler Project collection where you can keep up with more day-to-day work. This is where we’re keeping track of feature ideas, upcoming blog posts and meetings.

Finally, we will be making more use of the blog to discuss design direction, product strategy and to keep everyone abreast of project status and new releases.

I think publishing the collection is a great idea, like you mentioned it give transparencies of what is going on. I think the biggest plus is actually showcasing what chandler could do for collaboration.
Image the dev team all maintain a public collection, and if items can be navigable between collections we can search for features/discussion, trace back the origin of the ideas. You can even have a different view where the notes look like blogs, and the list are a side bar.
