Re: [Texmacs-dev] [TeXmacs] TeXmacs meeting in Portugal

[Miguel de Benito Delgado]

Dear Joris,

  again thank you for that great week. And for the group picture too. I 
don't really have any suggestions to make concerning the plan other than 
maybe offering a mail address to the developers for things related to 
texmacs.

That's cool.

This looks ok. Or maybe we could change "leader" into "coordinator". 
It's less... authoritarian... x-DD

The tasks there more or less summarize most of the new things we talked 
about. However I don't see some tasks:

  - QT port
  - UI improvement (designing dialogs, creating wizards, generally 
improving the user experience)
  - Google's Native Client port
  - More specific tasks like the error handling we talked about in Faro.
  - Also the automated documentation task does not mention the 
documentation of the scheme code (if we finally automate something of that)

I'm in! (the SVN, that is). I've added some basic info about myself, 
including a fake email address you might want to un-fake, or not. I 
didn't commit the modified contribute.en.html yet. If someone wants me 
to add their links and create the files so they only have to fill in the 
blanks I'll do that.

Massimiliano? Others?

There's also the problem of updating web content while someone shows up 
who will manage it. What's the policy about changes? For instance: I'd 
like to create a couple of pages for specific tasks, for instance the 
autodocs. Is it ok with you? By the way, I volunteer for that one. I 
also would like to contribute to some others. If I create the pages we 
can start listing people there.

Cheers,
