Re: loomio



I looked at this and it seems quite interesting.  The one  problem I see is that this would subsume our current mailing list structure.  We would have to bring this in house so that people could see what the decisions are and why.

Overall, I think it's a good way to take conversations out of IRC and making it formal on such a structure.

But it doesn't seem like they have released the code yet.

In any case, what problem are we exactly trying to solve here?  Most of the problems we have is related to our time schedules as volunteers.  This is mostly solved by adding more people to the project.

Hello,

I found a tool for collaborative decision making and brainstorming
called loomio:

https://www.loomio.org/

It's open for private beta, and I think Gnome, as a community project,
can really benefit from using it.

Currently the communication between people in the project is done in
several channels not connected to each other: mailing list, GnomeLive
wiki and IRC channels. All three of them treat all text as just plain
text, meaning the computer doesn't provide us tools for specific content
such as brainstorming, ideas, plans, schedules, etc.

Loomio doesn't provide all of these things, but it's a great tool for a
community to use for managing ideas and decisions.

What do you think?
