Hello,
I'd like to propose that in an effort to get a bit better organised, that we should start putting together a website. I'm not talking about a pretty look-at-us-we've-got-a-logo-and-cool-project-name site, but rather something that we can use to document decisions and developer info, a single point of reference. Even though nothing has yet started, I would like to get into the habit now, with research and organisational issues.
I can get a basic site up & running in less then an hour, but what kind of features would be needed for such a thing?
Initially I'm thinking of just information presented clearly, the most basic of basic sites (obviously it needs a bit of planning, as it will grow very quickly)
I know we'd need something like bugzilla sooner or later, but you seem to be thinking of other, more direct uses.
I think that we'll eventually need a decent CMS, alongside other web based development tools. At this stage in the game we're looking at gathering and organising stuff. For example, there's been quite a few CVS/SVN links flying about on the list and forums which would be good to nail in one place. There's also organisational stuff like the developer list you've gathered.
I'm putting myself forward to help get this off the ground.
Sounds good to me, how do you wish to proceed?
Well the first thing would be to secure some hosting for this thing. Next would be looking at the info we already have and the kind of stuff that's likely to come up in the future, and putting it together in a logical, easy to reference manner.
