Yeah, I should probably put it somewhere on the website. I wasn't feeling well for a little while, the alioth was down, etc. but I'll add it somewhere.

I've setup two in the past and I found them cumbersome and confusing. As far as our limitations, I'm not really sure; we can use PHP and things like that, but I don't know about databases for the website and things of that nature. It might be mentioned somewhere so I'll have a look around, but I don't think anything we'll be doing is going to need an e-commerce solution. ;-) > But, if instead of migrate the site to a Wiki (I > don't know if this is the idea) we use a Wiki to manage > some of our informations, contacts, TODOs and other > "working on"/"already started" tasks? This is definitely a benefit of using a wiki. As of now, it's all manual editing of XHTML and CSS occasionally, and it would be nice to cut down on that, as well as less confusing for new people. Maybe. Wiki syntax is kind of yucky. > I also vote for WML! :) WML people, where are you? > O que você acha de atuarmos com "interpretadores"? > Pessoas que possam traduzir as mensagens para um local > público ou para uma outra lista?

(summary and reply in english - my, how we've come full circle!) Summary of above: For people that don't speak English, perhaps there could be people to translate the messages for their $LANG, but it could become complicated if the quantity becomes too high. Reply: There have been a few discussions on this list which put the cart before the horse. I think this is one of them, however.. there is also the matter of setting up proper infrastructure early on so that it will expand well in the future. At the moment, I don't think there are many discussions here which are worth translating. If at some point in the future this becomes necessary, I think a summary of the weeks messages (a la LKML) would be useful. If groups in other countries start off-shoots and are doing cool things, it would also be nice to have those discussions translated to English in the same manner. But yeah, we need to actually accomplish something first.. :) -- off the chain like a rebellious guanine nucleotide
