Re: [gnome.org #1964] Web Gnome LDAP access

["Quim Gil" <quimgil gmail com>]

I expect more wgo accounts to come:

- Of course more wgo editors, not many but some.

- The GNOME Products will be co-maintained by wgo editors and GNOME
projects maintainers.

- The Success Stories will be mostly contributed by GNOME Journal
editors and whoever wants to submit a success story.


What is more, in the next release cycle we will start working on more
vamp/revamp: news.gnome.org will probably be a Plone instance as well,
and perhaps folundation.gnome.org too.

I think it's worth to start doing things right since the beginning of
the new wgo era.
