Re: [Condor-users] Improving community involvement



Aesthetically, the wiki isn´t the prettiest to look at therefore I think a great starting point is to migrate to Jira or Trac for Condor. Any thoughts?

It seems like a recurring theme this year has been improving community
involvement in Condor. I've had a few suggestions come to mind:

* The wiki has two audiences: developers and users/administrators. It
would be nice if there was some separation in the content. It doesn't
necessarily require separate wiki instances, but just a clear
delineation.

* The recipes are a great resource, but it would be good if there was
a page for people to request recipes. Some things that may seem
obvious to people who have used Condor for years may not be so obvious
to newcomers. I created a wish-list page[0] in the wiki and put a link
at the top of the Recipes page.

* Along the same lines, would a wish list for Condor features be
helpful? Sure, people could file tickets, but would a wiki page be
more approachable?

* The IRC channel may be a more useful to the community if there was
an IRC applet somewhere on the Condor site.

I think I had more ideas, but it's the end of Condor Week and my
thinkerator is tired. Hopefully this prompts suggestions from others.
