[sakai2-tcc] Community building survey/ideas

[Anthony Whyte]

Blogging is pretty old school -- how about tweeting instead of blogging, at least until you become more comfortable with the medium?

Instead of doing a survey why don't you set time aside to

      interview folks working on interesting Sakai-related projects
     
then write up the interviews and push the content to the revised sakaiproject.org site when it's ready.

In other words, a lightweight, text-based, version of

since we don't have the cash to send you, camera in hand, around the world interviewing interesting Sakai personalities.

Just a thought based on reading your suggestions below.

The nutshell is get more community engagement, discussion, and energy, and perhaps make some conversations that happen on email a little more visible and interactive. Or even perhaps make some of the great people resources we have more visible to the community. That kind of thing.

While I have never blogged, and so am a bit uncomfortable about it, I think it could be a good idea to provide regular community overviews, so hopefully that will be another communications channel. Just need to kick myself in the pants to get started.
