[Fabien Bourgeois <fabien.8@xxxxxxx>]

Good morning all,

I d'like to initiate a discussion about the ooc website and more 
generally the ooc Net presence.

Currently, the website is mostly built around PHP softwares : Wordpress 
for the blog and DokuWiki. Github is used for development and issues, 
Launchpad as the ML host and, last, Twitter for daily follow-up.

I'd like to have your points of view about :

1. I believe that having our ML outside our primary domain isn't a good 
thing, especially if followers need a Launchpad account. The idea is to 
have our own ML, with Mailman or at least at our host. What do you think 
about creating a second ML, to mark out ooc-dev and ooc-users ?

2. A "free" consideration : it should be a good thing to pull out 
Twitter and migrate to Identi.ca, or, why not, to install our own 
StatusNet service [http://status.net/]. We can keep the Twitter account 
and automatically push the messages from Identi.ca I think.

3. What are your opinions about the creation of a XMPP room ?

4. What do you think about writing the website in OOC  : a good idea, to 
demonstrate a real world example; not a priority, practical aspects 
matters more... ?

Some people, on IRC, were talking about making the website in RoR. Is 
someone have more information ? I can help in this area too, but in 
Python and most probably around the BFG framework 
[http://bfg.repoze.org/] and maybe later in OOC.

Until we can write the OOC website in RoR/Python or even OOC itself, I 
think we should optimize our wiki and create more pages to give visitors 
more information about OOC, its community and ecosystem. I'll write 
another posts on the ML to detail.
