Re: Proposal to make GnomeLove official and move it to developer.gnome.org

Hi Magdalen,

Yeah I'm searching for an opinion, not only feedback. You did right.
And I completely agree, I do much effort to not forget how I felt and what
things made me feel impotence or angry or desperate while doing it.

So yeah, I think that's an important part =)

Cheers,
Carlos Soriano

I appreciate this. My main consideration I was urging Allan (and others
generally) to make here, is that with increasing experience it can become
harder and harder to remember what it's like to actually be a newcomer and
see these things through their eyes. The experience of navigating through
all this documentation between the wiki.gnome.org and developer.gnome.org,
trying to figure out which documentation is reliable before carrying out
commands, is something that is easy to forget about, and that's a bit of an
inevitability; so it's understandable, but because of that, we probably all
need to try to be weary of as time goes on.

I wasn't suggesting you go it alone. I was giving my opinion on your
proposal, given that this seemed to be what you were after. If you are only
interested in feedback from specific people then it's probably advisable to
make that clear from the outset.
