However, I also don't think a generic "groupware" tool is the best thing, and I think it would be unfortunate to treat the server as a replacement for the wiki. Other teams maintain a presence on the wiki and coordinate activities through the wiki, and I recommend that the art team do that as well. I don't know the details, but I think a tool similar to gnome-look.org (same software on kde-look.org) is the type of thing that is needed. I don't know what the tool is exactly on those sites, so it may not be the best choice for various reasons. But I think we should be able to identify an open source tool which allows easy upload, viewing, and downloading of various types of artwork in a simple straightforward way. I don't think we want to replace or duplicate the wiki function, the mailing lists, IRC, etc. - just meet the artwork needs that aren't met elsewhere. My two cents.
