+<PRE>Hi,
+
+everyone's wondering so let's get started.
+
+About 20 people have subscribed to this list so far; there are some
+missing from the 30 listed on the web page, I will send another mail
+to these next week to make sure they had the time.
+
+So, there are several things on the table for now. Please excuse if
+this is a bit messy :-p we will start from that.
+
+ * could someone review/cleanup/organize
+<A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=web">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=web</A> a bit?
+
+ * we need to setup a weekly online IRC meeting (we will keep it under
+30 min. at first) on <A HREF="irc://irc.freenode.net/#mageia-web">irc://irc.freenode.net/#mageia-web</A>
+ - this meeting will be a good reference point to get everyone in sync;
+ - a good meeting is: bound in time (let's keep it under 30min at
+first), bound in topic (must be prepared in advance), have a public
+log and a public summary (we can use a meetbot instance for that);
+ - could you state your timezone relative to UTC + your preferences,
+on the web page to get a first picture of the best time? Note that the
+Monday 18/19:00 UTC slot is already taken by the current founding
+board meeting (likely to become the Council meeting)
+
+ * about ongoing things:
+
+ - the infrastructure for authentication (LDAP + a Catalyst-based
+web app) is being reviewed and put in place by the sysadm team; that
+will unleash a lot to enable build-system, forum, bugzilla and other
+authentication-based apps;
+
+ - build-system, bugzilla, mirrors, maintainersdb are being
+investigated and setup by the sysadm team at this time; you may join
+#mageia-sysadm in case of question or if you are willing to help;
+
+ - we're gathering specific requirements for our next Wiki
+<A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=wiki_requirements">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=wiki_requirements</A> (I'm
+investigating a MediaWiki-based setup, somehow similar to what we had
+at Mandriva, but nothing is set yet); input welcome;
+
+ - please have a look at <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=roadmap">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=roadmap</A>
+and tell if you see something missing or not clear, and how it could
+relate to web team projects (already defined or not);
+
+ - please review <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=policies">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=policies</A> if you
+think there are some policies that may be related to Web (or missing
+or whatever)
+
+ - the main website (www); current website is in its launch format
+for now; I'm working on a quick platform for handling the next
+version, based on the same premises that I wrote in
+<A HREF="https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-discuss/20100922/000617.html">https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-discuss/20100922/000617.html</A> -
+PHP-based, code to come soon, just to have something working; although
+discussion is open about this anyway, we could opt for some other
+solution; at this time, I am the lead on this and I hurry up on this
+:<i>-)
+</I>
+ - blogs are setup, based on Wordpress (<A HREF="http://blog.mageia.org/">http://blog.mageia.org/</A> );
+Damien (damsweb) is the lead on this;
+
+ - forums; Mageia will host at least English and French base forums
+and redirect on others (or happily welcome to host, provided
+moderators join as well); this will be based on PHPbb 3, and should
+pop up after the LDAP setup is complete; maat is the lead on this;
+
+ - there is the app-db project; stormi is the lead on this, he
+already posted about it on the -discuss list;
+
+ - there is a wish list (on the web page), there are ideas floating
+(how do we layout/organize all websites), there are ideas that you may
+come up with. Please submit/organize your ideas on the web page or
+here.
+
+ * for hosting projects, we have a svn (<A HREF="http://svn.mageia.org">http://svn.mageia.org</A>) but:
+ - it will be migrated soon, it's been a quick install, but its
+contents should not move;
+ - it is not documented (what is where) apart for people having put
+something there; this should change soon; if you need a repository for
+your project to be hosted there, just ask;
+ - we may have a git setup (maybe gitorious) though nothing is
+decided yet; input welcome;
+ - we should try to document all projects, per page (on the wiki at
+least), with contact/status/roadmap; I will try to make a template for
+this, but if you have one already, please submit it here;
+
+ * for hosting test/staging servers for apps to
+develop/test/assess/release, there is nothing planned at this time,
+but this is something to think about: typical dev/release process,
+platforms, accesses.
+
+ * for issues/bug/tasks tracker, nothing decided yet either however a
+probable option will be using a single Bugzilla instance to host
+several products (see <A HREF="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi</A> or
+<A HREF="https://qa.mandriva.com/query.cgi?format=specific">https://qa.mandriva.com/query.cgi?format=specific</A> for an example);
+input welcome;
+
+ * for main graphic design, style of the Mageia.org website, we depend
+on at least three things:
+ - the logo (this should be sorted in about two/three weeks); that
+will help about style and colour scheme;
+ - how we communicate the project and the product;
+ - information architecture as a whole for the project, conditioning
+how we spread content, how the navbar will look, etc.
+
+ * we will need to :
+ - name/elect for this short year (will be reconducted around coming
+FOSDEM in April): representative to the council, team leader and
+deputy leader; this requires not only technical skills but as well
+human, facilitating, directing and delegating qualities, clear
+understanding of the project direction and a good trust from the team
+- and of course, some serious availability in time for the project;
+think about this and whether you may want to run for this;
+ - define soft policies about how we are going to work together
+(what tool do we use, how to we propose something new/different in a
+formal way that can be discussed, etc.)
+ - the mentoring process within the team; again, this is about
+technical skills (for Web development here) as well as awareness and
+insight into the team spirit and project goal and culture; so this is
+likely something to share with other teams; still, your very ideas are
+welcome;
+
+
+Hmmm, you may have more specific or other question. Feel free to ask or suggest.
+
+Cheers,
+
+
+Romain
