dubuntu-team team mailing list archive

[Ryan Macnish <nisshh@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey,

thanks for the quick reply. Im definitely not saying that we shouldnt use our mailing list i use them all the time and they are great. But i simply think that a forum would be better since we are trying to discuss something here in high detail and it can be difficult to do that when there more than 3-4 people discussing it.

Im just suggesting that we brainstorm and advertise using the forum and then simply use the mailing list for shorter messages, rather than big discussions. Im not saying we have to, im just saying it may be a good idea based off of my own experience with these things. Im also trying to generarate some discussion.

Also in my last post i forgot to mention that i support the gtk+python method of doing this. Python is sooo much easier to learn than C++ and there is already a bunch of python bindings for gtk2+ in the ubuntu repos called pygtk.

Hi Ryan



Thanks for joining.  There has been no activity here for a couple of months.  I guess I got busy with other stuff.  None the less, it's probably time to get going again.



Thanks for your suggestion.  I must admit I rather like a mailing list as its the next best thing to live chat, but without having to log into a site.  That means I can continue with my work and only respond to messages as they come in.  Is there any specific benefit you see in having a forum over having a mailing list?



Regards

Charl

    Hi everyone,

    

    I found this project while browsing the teams archive on lp and took interest in the topic.

    

    Here is what i have to offer to the team:

    6 months of ubuntu experience

    5 years since i learnt html and css

    iv been using computers for nearly 13 years

    iv known python and glade for 3 months

    

    To sum it up i can basically design a website, code in python, GTK2+ and glade, have some experience with ubuntu and linux, and also have a fair bit of technical knowledge. I am also a regular forum user (i could create a team forum?), and i also have my own project in lp.

    

    Now, my vote goes to devbuntu NOT dubuntu. I like the website design that was made up but the light pink color is crap. It also looks like you wrote the words on the bricks using MS paint. The logo is awesome.

    

    Using a mailing list is awkward when 6+ people are trying to discuss something in detail, so i propose that a team forum be made.

    

    And yes i have read the wiki entry, as well as the mailing list archive.

    

    Ryan
