Unconstrained wish-list. Let just record it first, then impose
resourcing and timing constraints later.
1. Documentation: Consider a typical end user who knows nothing about
free software. What categories of questions will he have? My attempt at
classification is as follows:
- what on earth is open source?
- how do I set this thing up?
- how do you: write emails / compose letters / get productive?
- Great.. how can I contribute?
2. Post-natal care for Arabbix: dedicated website, forum, mailing list.
Nothing new to report on other stuff. Still remains on my to do list
until my hibernation ends.
