Geoff, you probably have the best handle on NewDocs as a whole, so your being available for consultation at least would be a real relief.

One concern I have about having two venues for team communication is keeping track of the information. It's hard enough to keep track of emails, but I wonder if it won't be harder for everyone to stay on the same sheet of music if we're spread out over email and IRC (?)

By brainstorming, I'm assuming we're just addressing what will go on a team wiki page?

Just wonderin'

Subject: [Newdocs] Talking about Brainstorms - That is what I need!

Hi Team, Upon waking this morning, I was overwhelmed with David's and Leigh's kind words to the extent that I posted that I wished to rejoin the Team. However that I feel would probably be a mistake. For one, I don't think it practical for me to be a part of the brainstorming sessions and secondly I don't feel I could do justice to the position anymore. If there was a consultancy position, maybe I could do that - who knows? I have suggested the latest Top 20 Page Hits as possibly being my last post for 2014-02-04. Svetlana, if you wished to post your Brainstorm post before that (after running it past David and Leigh) I will do that last post 3 days after yours which is about the time (if I am right David and Leigh) we have normally considered to allow a post to "sink in" before posting another. Cheers and best wishes, Geoff. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~newdocs Post to : newdocs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~newdocs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp



Hi Leigh,

I have this nagging doubt that I even wish to be done with NewDocs - maybe some time off will help me to perhaps refresh myself. Your definition of our brainstorming re a wiki page is my understanding of it too. I wonder how much response will come in requesting assistance - perhaps that wall of silence that I have talked
about.
The way I see that two sources of communication, if ever NewDocs has enough followers that wish to communicate via IRC then I say that is fine, however I feel the Mailing List will remain the most practical tool for day to day use.

Anyhow, that is how I see it right now - I am unsure of what David's views would be on the subject.

Cheers and best wishes,
Geoff.
