Oniro Forum RFC
hi,
Let me open a ticket for forum to be hosted at EF,
Plan
here is a proposal about how can we proceed:
-
0: ostc forum will stay only for non oss related discussion (and be closed someday if there is no use of it) -
1: we need a blank discourse somewhere (latest version preferred) -
2: we propose just few categories : Project, Side topics, News (moderated), (WIP) -
3: we establish rules (WIP) -
4: we wait for input posts -
5: we listen to categories suggestions (matching rules) -
6: if forum is growing too fast, we establish cats aligned to project domains (gitlab) and propose category to domain's maintainers (they are expected to do curation)
Extra steps
-
1.1: tag feature is desirable (tag cloud on frontpage too) -
4.1: we try to apply tags to posts -
4.2: valuable posts from ostc can be copied manually from ostc to oniro
Notes
Today this work is blocked on step 1 (IT), but I may lack knowledge of existing plans
Note that discourse is very flexible and can also be used as wiki for knowledge base and more.
Meanwhile this could be used (but it's far than discourse provided to otsc):
