Trying to keep this going....Got one +1 and no objections to the proposed changes to the Communicate and Mailing List pages so I will proceed.<div><br></div><div>Can we get Alexey privileges to make changes to the blog? He is a very experience web developer. Maybe I could put him in touch with Chris Sharp to discuss protocols and things? We'd like to be able to implement these things and not have to put additional pressure on Chris.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">By my count, that's 5-1 in support of the mailing list policy I proposed. However, Dan made some good points that I'd like to address. So what I've done is mock up a modified Contribute page and Mailing List page showing how I think they
might work better together and incorporate some of the issues I was going for while addressing some of Dan's concerns. <u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Specifically, I'd like to be able to include a policy based on the community values we came up with at the last conference. So, I put that values statement at the top of the Contribute page.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, on the Contribute page, I included a statement about transparency and privacy after introducing the "mailing lists" and "IRC" channels since these are both public and logged and our policy is not to change the archives except under
very limited circumstances. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The other changes I made to the Contribute page was to add a reference to the wiki. It wasn't there before. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, for the other communication methods (event calendar, official blog, community blogs) and the wiki, I'd like to provide a link to someone who can help someone contribute to each. Who to contact if they have something to add to the
blog? Who to contact if they want a wiki account? Who to contact if they'd like to add something to the calendar? Who to contact if they have a blog to add to the community blog aggregator? In most cases, there is no contact person or way to actually contribute
directly. In some cases, it is very difficult to do so (e.g. the event calendar) so it would be nice to just have one person who was willing to add a single item to the event calendar sometimes. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">My overall goal is to try to clarify who is managing each section and keep that transparent to everyone. So if we can add the points of contact, I think we'd go a long way in that regard.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for those links Galen. I'll toss out a draft mailing list<br>
policy to get us going....<br>
<br>
Mailing List Policy<br>
<br>
Mailing lists are crucial to the operation of the Evergreen Community.<br>
The General Mailing List serves as the primary communication for all<br>
members of the community and provides a venue for users to help each<br>
other use the software. In addition, Evergreen users and developers<br>
use mailing lists to coordinate development and the Oversight Board<br>
uses a mailing list to manage issues of governance. Mailing lists also<br>
serve as a primary channel for working groups to conduct Evergreen<br>
business (e.g. Documentation Interest Group, Web Team, Catalogers,<br>
etc).<br>
<br>
The Evergreen community values openness, transparency, and<br>
collaboration and seeks to provide an environment that respects and<br>
encourages all contributions. As such, none of the Evergreen mailing<br>
lists are private. Anyone can subscribe to any of the lists available<br>
at <a href="http://evergreen-ils.org/listserv.php" target="_blank">http://evergreen-ils.org/listserv.php</a>.<br>
<br>
Mailing list participants are expected to respect the stated purpose<br>
of each list and conduct themselves in a mutually respectful manner at<br>
all times.<br>
<br>
The lists are also archived archived and publicly searchable. Our<br>
policy is that the archives are not modified except under rare<br>
situations where confidential information has been inadvertently<br>
shared on a list. Please send a request promptly to<br>
<a href="mailto:feedback@evergreen-ils.org" target="_blank">feedback@evergreen-ils.org</a> if you believe you are the exception.<br>
However, be advised that deleting information in the archives will not<br>
make it go away because mailing lists have been mirrored, have feeds<br>
and are in the Google cache and other search engine indexes.<u></u><u></u></p>
