+<PRE>Practically you are saying: Mageia has successfully accomplished its
+first milestone - a small team has produced a high-quality release. Now
+comes the second one - harness the community to keep it running and make
+it grow.
+
+I am one of those who signed up and, so far has not &quot;delivered&quot; - the
+reasons, as I understand them, may apply to other users: the
+organisation of future Mandriva activities into teams is great, nothing
+to say to that. But I wonder whether the titles defined for the teams
+are a sufficient roster when it comes to members of the community to
+judge where they fit in - how to best make a match between their
+competences and the requirements enumerated by Romain and Wobo.
+
+Example 1: I had signed up for QA - thought that my generalist knowledge
+and being a long standing and critical user would be sufficient as a
+qualification - after a first dicussion I got cold feet and concluded
+that I do not qualify - maybe right, maybe wrong. I would like to have
+have a yardstick to allow a more objective assessment.
+
+Example 2: Web-team - what does that mean, what skills is Mandriva
+looking for? content-oriented skills (producing kilometers of text on
+such and such), technical skills (building, enhancing the
+infrastructure), PR skills (using the web for selling the good news
+about Mageia)?
+
+Some suggestions (sorry - more work for the existing team):
+- Remaining in the roster of team titles: write a couple of lines that
+allow community members to judge whether they can contribute to a team
+or not
+- Complement the team-name roster by a skill roster - by list of
+activities that need to be done, requiring certain skills - that may end
+up in channeling people into specific teams.
+- Probably also consider some kind of &quot;interviewing&quot;, a dialogue between
+a &quot;recruiter&quot; and a &quot;candidate&quot; where both sides can clarify whether
+there is match between the required and offered profile.
+
+That may sound administrative and over-formal - I think it is a way to
+bootstrap the &quot;community network&quot; that an outfit like Mageia needs in
+order to prosper. There is need for a second round - the first was hands
+up for documenting willingness to help, the second one needs some kind
+of recruitement mechanism to match need and offered skills.
+
+Personally, I will try yet another approach: write to Wobo&amp;Cie and do
+&quot;inverse interviewing&quot; ask them for feedback.
